Majestic melancholy

He stood at the edge of his castle
And looked down upon his Kingdom
all he saw was the pain
All he saw was anguish
All he saw was disappointment
All he saw was disaster
He stood at the top of his tower
Feeling sorry for himself
Feeling sorry for his Kingdom
He wept for their demise
Peasants walked passed pointing at him
They say to themselves "there is the majestic melancholy"
He is out of his chambers
Here to bless us with his sadness
