Kings Lyrics
What strikes fear in the heart of one man
Might not even move another
While a stranger gets your hand
You turn your back upon your brother
And you know
You know
You know
You know
We all want the highest towers
And the valleys at our feet
We are counting down the hours
Til our life and love will meet
And you know
You know
You know
You know
You know
It's gonna take some time
If we want to
We could do what Kings do
I can feel the Earth move when you speak
If we fight through all the things we once knew
Everything could change for me and you
We could do what Kings do
You feel unworthy of the throne
You have forgotten who you are
We all have the blood of angels
And we fell from the same star
The heart of a lion
And the lips of a child
One part of you is dying
And the other running wild
And you know
You know
You know
You know
You know
It's gonna take some time
If we want to
We could do what Kings do
I can feel the Earth move when you speak
If we fight through all the things we once knew
Everything could change for me and you
We could do what Kings do
We could do what Kings do
We could do what Kings do
We could do what Kings do
It's gonna take some time
It's gonna take some time
If we want to
We could do what Kings do
I can feel the Earth move when you speak
If we fight through all the things we once knew
Everything could change for me and you
If we want to
We could do what Kings do
I can feel the Earth move when you speak
If we fight through all the things we once knew
Everything could change for me and you
We could do what Kings do
We could do what Kings do
We could do what Kings do
We could do what Kings do
Might not even move another
While a stranger gets your hand
You turn your back upon your brother
You know
You know
You know
And the valleys at our feet
We are counting down the hours
Til our life and love will meet
You know
You know
You know
You know
It's gonna take some time
We could do what Kings do
I can feel the Earth move when you speak
If we fight through all the things we once knew
Everything could change for me and you
We could do what Kings do
You have forgotten who you are
We all have the blood of angels
And we fell from the same star
The heart of a lion
And the lips of a child
One part of you is dying
And the other running wild
You know
You know
You know
You know
It's gonna take some time
We could do what Kings do
I can feel the Earth move when you speak
If we fight through all the things we once knew
Everything could change for me and you
We could do what Kings do
We could do what Kings do
We could do what Kings do
We could do what Kings do
We could do what Kings do
I can feel the Earth move when you speak
If we fight through all the things we once knew
Everything could change for me and you
We could do what Kings do
I can feel the Earth move when you speak
If we fight through all the things we once knew
Everything could change for me and you
We could do what Kings do
We could do what Kings do

We're so used to songs from one person to another being about a relationship, but this one is fascinating if you think of who is actually singing it - two sisters. In that light, the song could be Catherine and Allison agreeing that if they chose to, they live as royalty... but then there are themes of love and jealousy. The second video shows them taking up arms against each other, so perhaps there is too much turmoil between them to seize what they see as their rightful prize.
So it's complicated, and painful, and it's gonna take some time...
