Throne Down

from Morning Glory by Mark Alan Dooley

/

about

Crushed under foot by the jack boot, yearning to see the demise of the demi-god oppressors. Long live the people!

lyrics

Throne Down:

The gloves were thrown down
by a king wearing a crown
of his own self righteous dignity
a halo of iniquity
Those perceived as weak rose
and they stood their ground
It's not the meek who stand in unity
in time to take the throne down

Throne Down
Wish I would have, think I could have been a part...
One stone
Makes a difference, but the trick is to unleash a barrage
One voice
Meets another, from a mutter to cacophony
One Heart
Beats with purpose keeping time, time to take the throne down

Will you still be there when I return from the front line?
There's a time you got to make a stand,
and the clock just stopped because it's my time....
It's our duty to dissent against the wrong that feels at right
To put the reigns around our necks
and then they pull tight.... they pull tight!

The King observes the scene
from behind his war machine
He's amused by all the discontent
and the jesters stroke his insolence
See one stand and then be dropped!
still yet another takes his place
Two unleashed for each that's caught
I see the throne is falling now

Knew I ought to, glad I got to be a part
