Karma Lyrics

I am a king of honor, gold and glory
but every king must also die.
Have I been just and righteous, what is glory?
I know I've torn and taken life!

And here I stand,
a small and simple man.

Who will trade his karma for my kingdom?
A sacrificial rite to render truth.
The fire in my soul rejects my wisdom
because all you do in life comes back to you.

I am a king in crisis, counting minutes,
there is an ending to my reign.
My sins have come to face me,
I can feel it that I have lived my life in vain.

And now I know I'll reap
the seeds I've sown.

Who will trade his karma for my kingdom?
A sacrificial rite to render truth.
The fire in my soul rejects my wisdom
because all you do in life comes back to you.

Am I mad?
I feel so void and cold.
Who can tell, who holds
the stories untold?

Tired and trembling
I am descending,
will I have to stay here
and live this life again?

Who will trade his karma for my kingdom?
A sacrificial rite to render truth.
The fire in my soul rejects my wisdom
because all you do in life comes back to you.
