The Rat King - a The Mind Electric parody (official track)

lyrics
My tail
My beautiful glorious tail
I stand above the rest
Yet darkness still surrounds me
As my rein stretches no further
Than our prison (all bow down at once)

My eyes
My beautiful beedy eyes
Have seen too much
Far more than any rat here will ever dream of
In our prison (all hail the all-mighty)

And though
I am considered the highest form of rat
I'm spat on by the common folk out there
And though
I am more powerful than many men
The world left me behind
It isn't fair

And so
Let my name be known

See how I shinе in the dark (The lonely king)
Though I'vе never seen the light
I can shine twice as bright
Like a hopeful beacon shines through the night (through hopeless nights)

See how my eyes turn ablaze
As I curse the things that live beyond these walls (the filthy men)
The humans that have made us feel so small
I'm cast away an angel never meant to fall

See how I envy you
No you'll never truly know
What it's like to be alone
Scratching at the walls for scraps and rotted bones (No drop of sun)

Have you any idea
What it's like to be a king without a throne
To lose your dignity, your vision, and your home
I didn't think so
I have seen the war
I know

I have been in hungry wait
Building my strength, blind, aching, smitten
Nothing will stand in my way
My story will not be re-written

Vaster than an ocean floor
My wrath will burn like dancing fire
Men of sun will fall and grovel
Fear my kingdom
My one true desire

See how my eyes cast a grey (see how he has no fear)
And I could not get away (Like a tower in the night)
No I could not get away (standing tall and full of might)
No I could not get away if I tried (though he'll never really truly see that clear)

See how the walls block the sun (see how he disappears)
As I sit atop my prison of a throne
As I sit atop my kingdom
Oh my broken home
The symbol of my torment sits atop my head
Glistening in the light I'll never see

All for nothing at all
All for nothing at all
But nothing to lose
