In the court of the Crimson King

[00:01.75] -

[00:16.36] -

[00:29.64] The rusted chains of prison moons

[00:33.36] Are shattered by the sun

[00:37.08] I walk a road horizons change

[00:41.06] The tournament's begun

[00:44.52] The purple piper plays his tune

[00:48.24] The choir softly sing

[00:51.69] Three lullabies in an ancient tongue

[00:55.67] For the court of the crimson king

[00:59.41] -

[01:11.89] -

[01:25.44] The keeper of the city keys

[01:29.16] Put shutters on the dreams

[01:32.35] I wait outside the pilgrim's door

[01:36.33] With insufficient schemes

[01:39.78] The black queen chants the funeral march

[01:43.76] The cracked brass bells will ring

[01:46.95] To summon back the fire witch

[01:51.20] To the court of the crimson king

[02:53.26] Ahhh...

[03:06.80] Ahhh...

[03:20.36] The gardener plants an evergreen

[03:23.81] Whilst trampling on a flower

[03:27.26] I chase the wind of a prism ship

[03:30.98] To taste the sweet and sour

[03:34.43] The pattern juggler lifts his hand

[03:38.15] The orchestra begin

[03:41.60] As slowly turns the grinding wheel

[03:45.06] In the court of the crimson king

[05:22.56] -

[05:30.16] On soft gray mornings widows cry

[05:34.42] The wise men share a joke

[05:37.87] I run to grasp divining signs

[05:41.32] To satisfy the hoax

[05:44.93] The yellow jester does not play

[05:48.39] But gently pulls the strings

[05:52.11] And smiles as the puppets dance

[05:55.46] In the court of the crimson king.

[06:11.14] Ahhh...

[06:24.69] Ahhh...

[06:35.05] Ahhh...
