Prince

*Sadness falls down from the grey sky
Covering the whole land in chaotic anguish
The silent moonlight regretfully thinks of the past
My waning territory, tears flowing passionately from the red windows*

**One step at a time, crushing corruption beneath my feet
One breath at a time, breathing in dust
I’m a lone soldier, fighting for the uncertain future in solitude

#I’m a proud prince, creating my own story
The things of the past, watered down by tears, slowly disappear
I’m a proud prince, elegantly persevering
With my own stubborn ways, I’ll live unrestrained

repeat *

Alone, step by step by step
I crush corruption beneath my feet
Breath by breath by breath,
I breathe in dust
The past, the present, tomorrow, the future – will I still be here?
I don’t don’t don’t don’t dare to hope

*Red symbolizes royalty and power, most likely the windows of his palace
