King At A Price

'Tis now the hour to seize the throne

I've not the will to go it alone

I foresee a blade in Duncan's chest

His life's blood I do invest

The mirror knows a face no one else can know

Points to the path that I must go

The moon will bring a change tonight

Asleep no one will see my plight

A dagger's thrust will be his end this night

Then to be king I'll pay the price

The lady and I devised a plan

Duncan expires by my hand

I deserve the place where he now stands

To be the ruler of these lands

The mirror knows a face no one else can know

Points to the path that I must go

The moon will bring a change tonight

Asleep no one will see my plight

A dagger's thrust will be his end this night

Then to be king I'll pay the price

A bloody scene I commit this day

Torments my mind I must block it away

Place the blame on drunken fools

Then in my innocence I will rule

The mirror knows a face no one else can know

Points to the path that I must go

A bloody blade brings change tonight

I am innocent in my plight

Regal in stature I take what's mine

I will be king at any price
