The Court Of The Crimson King
Various Artists Lyrics


The dance of the puppets
The rusted chains of prison moons
Are shattered by the sun.
I walk a road, horizons change
The tournaments begun.
The purple piper plays his tune,
The choir softly sing;
Three lullabies in an ancient tongue,
For the court of the crimson king.
The keeper of the city keys
Put shutters on the dreams.
I wait outside the pilgrims door
With insufficient schemes.
The black queen chants
The funeral march,
The cracked brass bells will ring;
To summon back the fire witch
To the court of the crimson king.

The gardener plants an evergreen
Whilst trampling on a flower.
I chase the wind of a prism ship
To taste the sweet and sour.
The pattern juggler lifts his hand;
The orchestra begin.
As slowly turns the grinding wheel
In the court of the crimson king.

On soft gray mornings widows cry
The wise men share a joke;
I run to grasp divining signs
To satisfy the hoax.
The yellow jester does not play
But gentle pulls the strings
And smiles as the puppets dance
In the court of the crimson king

I love your style of editing, I'm looking forward for your next projects (That Jonathan leitmotif sounds promising!)
Personally, I think that your best leitmotifs are the ones that put the focus on the lyrics matching whats happening on screen and use the music to tell a story
If you do more in this style, I think these songs might fit with the characters' POV and could tell a good story:
*Englishman in New York - Sting (Telling Joseph Joestar's story at the beginning of Battle Tendency)
*I'm in touch with your world - The Cars (Telling Kars' feelings about becoming the Ultimate being)
*King Nothing - Metallica (Telling Risotto Nero's thoughts about The Boss and how he sees King Crimson as nothing)
*Green Day - Green Day (Telling Cioccolata and Team Bucciarati's thoughts during their fight)
*Judgment Day - Whitesnake (Telling Enrico Pucci's story with Perla and how he will reach heaven)
*Egypt (The Chains are On) - Dio (Telling DIO's thoughts as the Joestar Group defeats each one of his minions on their way to Egypt)

This is Single-Handedly the best Leitmotif I have ever seen. The music, the editing, the symbolism behind the lyrics and how you edited the scenes of the part to match it. It's perfect. This is the magnum opus of JoJo Leitmotifs.
