Lyrics
Verse 1
Heavy boots walked this stage
Blood sweat tears on every page
Wild prince with raven hair
Left us gasping for the air
Pre-Chorus

Thunder rolls through empty halls
Where once your voice would shake these walls
Chorus

Crown of thorns upon your head
Now silence fills the throne instead
Prince of midnight, lord of pain
Your kingdom weeps in purple rain
(Purple rain, purple rain)
Verse 2

Broken crosses, shattered stone
Built this temple all alone
Iron wings that couldn't fly
But taught us how to touch the sky
Pre-Chorus

Lightning strikes where angels fear
Your battle cry we'll always hear
Chorus

Crown of thorns upon your head
Now silence fills the throne instead
Prince of midnight, lord of pain
Your kingdom weeps in purple rain
(Purple rain, purple rain)
Bridge

Bite the hand that feeds the flame
Nothing left will be the same
Metal heart that beat so true
Every scar was worn for you
(Worn for you, worn for you)
Final Chorus

Crown of thorns upon your head
But legends never truly dead
Prince of midnight, lord of pain
Your legacy breaks every chain
(Breaks every chain)
Your kingdom lives beyond the rain
(Beyond the rain, beyond the rain)
Outro

Heavy boots walked this stage
Now angels turn another page
