Kingslayer
Bring Me the Horizon Lyrics

Hi, are you looking for the other side?
Asking if the listener is searching for a solution or a way out of their difficulties

Feel like nothing ever seems quite right?
Questioning if the listener is struggling with a sense of constant disappointment

Are you circling the drain pipe, getting off on pain like / You're corrupted?
Asking if the listener is addicted to pain and self-destruction

I need to know where your loyalties lie / Tell me, are you gonna bark or bite?
Questioning the listener's allegiances and challenging them to either take action or back down

Do you really want to twist the knife / In the belly of the monster?
Asking if the listener is truly willing to take on a major challenge and risk everything

Get the fuck up, wake the fuck up / Wipe the system, and back the fuck up / You're a puppet when they cut your strings off / Don't come crawling back
Encouraging the listener to resist authority, regain control, and not depend on those who have betrayed them

Kingslayer / Destroying castles in the sky / Kingslayer / Forevermore the apple of my eye / I'd sacrifice my life to find you / Angel of the flame / Kingslayer / Come and collect us from the night
The singer sees themselves as a defender of the downtrodden, willing to fight for a just cause and rescue others from despair

暗い この見えない世界 / まだ消えない未来 / ただ手に入れたい another world / System failure / Life is encrypted, genome modified / Like a virus in a lullaby / Artificial 'til the day you die, silly program / You're corrupted
Describing a dystopian world in which people's lives are controlled by technology and they are robbed of their humanity; admonishing the listener for being complicit in their own oppression

さあ 時の / 扉を開けて / 行こうよ
Inviting the listener to seize the opportunities presented to them and take a bold step forward

I'll fight for you until I die
Reiterating the singer's readiness to stand by the listener until the end

I'd sacrifice it all to guide you / Never have to battle alone / Kingslayer / Come and collect us from the night
Offering the listener hope that they can be liberated from their struggles by the singer's assistance

This is your wake up call / We're going down the rabbit hole / Are you ready? / I can't feel you
Signaling a moment of truth, urging the listener to take decisive action and warning them that there is no turning back

Is this what you want? / This is what you'll fucking get / You motherfucking shit
Confronting the listener with the consequences of their actions, with a hint of aggression towards them for their lack of action or poor choices
