Machine Head [US2] Lyrics
"Killers & Kings"

Dark lady read me the future
The ancient verse hidden away
I turn from the evergrey

Tarot cards keep us enraptured
Open mind, become a sage
Let this unlock the cage

Ancient power
Darkest hour

Open your third eye and you'll see

Killers and kings
Inheritors of earth
Killers and kings
From death there comes rebirth

And as an army we will sing
A diamond bears our ring
Killers and kings

Look to earth, summon the master
Awake the human living inside
Ecclesiasticide

The Hangman gives into temperance
The Sun shines over The Fool
High Priestess spreads her rule

Death and rebirth
Decay and mirth

Open your third eye and you'll see

Killers and kings
Inheritors of earth
Killers and kings
From death there comes rebirth

And as an army we will sing
A diamond bears our ring
Killers and kings

A diamond bears our ring

The king of pentacles is here
Strength and Fortitude help to push away the fear
We stand atop the mountain with The Hermit and The Lamp
As The Lovers in the Knight of Swords give in to the damned

What do the cards say?
The prophecy remains
The Devil in the Emperor could keep us locked in chains
And the Death card does'nt mean you die
It means a change is coming that you simply can't deny

Reborn, Rebirth
From death comes rebirth

Killers and kings
Inheritors of earth
Killers and kings
From death there comes rebirth

And as an army we will sing
A diamond bears our ring
Killers and kings

Killers and kings
Inheritors of earth
Killers and kings
From death there comes rebirth

And as an army we will sing
A diamond bears our ring
Killers and kings
