[Intro]
Ash in my lungs
Blood in the gutter
Crown on a skull
Hear the bones mutter
[Verse 1]
City all quiet
Teeth on the pavement
Sirens long gone
Just me and the hatred
Crater where the playground
Used to have swings
Now it’s hot glass hills
And twisted rings
March with the marrow
Rattle in the cadence
Jawbone general
Rotten and dangerous
Kids’ chalk lines
Now target lines
Whole damn skyline
Charcoal signs
Walk through the smoke
With a rusted blade
Ribcage drum
While the dead parade
Face all cracked
Still I grin
I don’t need air
I just breathe sin
[Chorus]
I’m the undead king of the crater (crater)
Crown made of skulls and the vapors (vapors)
Gunshots echo, get louder, get greater (rah, rah)
You prayed for a savior
I came as the laser
Undead king of the crater
[Verse 2]
Boots on the bones
Glass in my veins
Teeth full of shrapnel
Laugh in the flames
Hear that click
Then the loud white blossom
Whole block gone
Turned ghosts to a blossom
Windows like mouths
Open and hollow
Every dark shadow
My soldiers follow
Eyes glow sick
Like reactor rods
Every step I take
Blasphemy to gods
Clip spit curses
Brick chip, dust fly
Torso missing
But I still walk by
Heart stopped beating
But the drum still bang
Every fresh crack
Got my banner hanging
“Long live nothing”
Sprayed on the wall
I already died
Now I want you all
[Chorus]
I’m the undead king of the crater
[Bridge]
March, march
Hear the teeth grind (grind)
Click, clap
Hear the steel shine (shine)
Dead city choir
Sing my name
If the blast don’t get you
Then my wolves will maim
[Chorus]
I’m the undead king of the crater
