Mister Vertigo - Regicide

One more king is vanquished
In celebration, laugh and punt his infamous crown
And as it's falling down, I taste the victory-sweet mead
And dream of many more like this

Another castle's conqueror
The taste of triumph mildly bitter, win or go unstoned
And I need a ride home if someone's got a free seat
It seems I'm seeing four of this

Work like this has never been easy
Don't think that I'm contented by
The waste I leave behind
One day I, too, will find myself bleeding
The obvious will not be lost on me
I am not so inclined

One may be good for you
But I'd feel better if it's two
And by the time we get to three
It will be four or more for me
And while I should just stop at five
If I had six I'd still survive
But if you don't mind I think
I might just kill them all

Work like this has never been easy
Success is represented by disgrace epitomized
I pray the proof will finally release me
The promises of freedom ringing hollow every time

Work like this has never been easy
Sure, I may be desensitized to the violence
But not the crime
And maybe when the truth is revealed
I will feel it's been worth it
But the price has been so high
