Song Lyrics
Mad King Ludwig
Verse One:
You loved the night,
Preferring your darkened chambers
To all that is light--
To all of those dying embers.
Deep in your heart, you cried out to be loved,
But the love that you wanted was sin.
Oh, you never asked for all the pain,
Now history has marred your name to be--
Chorus:
Mad King Ludwig,
King of Nothing.
Verse Two:
They feared what you were--
A frightening and dangerous mystery.
The unknown must burn--
Leave nothing as silent witness.
They never new what was there in your heart,
It was safer to deem you insane.
Oh, they would stop at nothing less
To have the kingdom you possessed, Oh--
Chorus:
Mad King Ludwig,
King of Nothing.
Spoken:
Neuschwanstein wird um Euch weinen,
Das Volk werden um Euch weinen,
Himmel wird um Euch weinen,
Und Ich werde für immer um Euch weinen. *
Chorus:
Mad King Ludwig,
King of Nothing.
(repeat, end)
* Neuschwanstein will cry for you,
The people will cry for you,
Heaven will cry for you,
And I will cry for you forever.
