What, would one say, is the beauty of a crown Engraved with sapphires so bright As the seven-god-starlight When it lies smashed and shattered on the cold marble stones
Where, would one ask, is the pride of my hordes With banners carried so fierce Into death or glory, loyal for years When their swords are broken and their scales are pierced
The wolves have all left us Summer howled the last time Now winter is coming Embracing this kingdom of mine
How, will one wonder Will my heir reign this land? With insanity being his mother And deceit his hand The lion’s heart, Found in the Goblin and the Lady It keeps the lies alive
It keeps the poisonous blood running The blood of the rock in the west Now just let it be, let it rest And whisper to me
The only truth is found in the fool. But remember the lie That’s all you need in the end anyway Now take a breath, take a breath while you still can Before you drown in the gold and red lies Remember the voice in the back of you head “One playing the game of thrones, rules or dies”
You played the game You always played their game In your friend’s name Oh in my name Now the cards are on the table But your jokers are nowhere to be found
The wolves have all left us Summer howled the last time Now winter is coming Embracing this kingdom of mine
