These ramparts are deserted -
The battlements abandoned -
Wandering these empty halls
Are ghostly memories…
The kingdom is in shambles -
Its castle lies in ruins -
Skyward spires are no more -
The flag is gone for good…
The mighty king has fallen -
Lost along with grace -
Since his queen had vanished -
Lost without a trace…
