King The Amazing Devil

[Intro: Madeleine Hyland]
I’ll keep the king
When you are gone away
Into darkness and howling, I’ll keep him from drowning
As our boat is untethered from the dock
I’ll keep the king
Keep him safe at bay
I’ll keep him safe from the dark things that wait
In that house at the top of the rock
In that house at the top of the rock

[Verse 1: Madeleine Hyland]
There’ve been times I know
I’ll stand up, up, up at the bow
And the waves of our bodies and the smell of our follies
Rips into the bark of my bones
You fumble through the dark
However wide and deep and far, my dear
The waves made of fingers and the madness that lingers
Rips into the bark of our bones

[Pre-Chorus: Joey Batey & Madeleine Hyland]
And let the sea birds cry
I’ll let the sea birds cry

[Chorus: Both]
I’ll keep the king
I’ll keep the king
I’ll keep him safe from the dark things that wait
In that house at the top of the rock
