A dark night in paradise, the moon was on the rise

Yon can hear the cries when someone dies

On the scaffold in the valley of the king

The knights turned to stone with their flesh and their bones

They were locked in chains in this evil game

Trying to escape from the masquerade

To live for the king,

No one will ever win

You'll turn forever into stone

Hiding from the sun, the mob is on the run

They're coming home again, it never ends

Losing all their minds (and their souls)

To live for the king,

No one will ever win

You'll turn forever into stone

To live for the king,

No one will ever win

You'll turn forever into stone

Oooh! Oh yeah!

Long ago in a land far away

They were living in the garden of evil

They felt the magic, they'd been strong

Burned in fire, turned to stone

And hiding their faces from the sun

Oooh, casting the spell

No you're

Catching a dream and you don't know what it means

Give up your life, live for the king

Catching a dream and you don't know what it means

Give up your life, live for the king

The damned, they lived in anger, built a tower out of stone

And felt the cold wind from the dark side of the moon

The juggler, the holy, the joker and the ghost

Trying to escape out of the valley

Oooh, casting the spell

No you're

Catching a dream and you don't know what it means

Give up your life, live for the king

Catching a dream and you don't know what it means

Give up your life, live for the king

Catching a dream and you don't know what it means

Give up your life, live for the king

Live for the king

Catching a dream and you don't know what it means

Give up your life, live for the king

Catching a dream and you don't know what it means

Give up your life, live for the king

Catching a dream and you don't know what it means

Give up your life, live for the king

Catching a dream and you don't know what it means

Give up your life, live for the king
