Madder Mortem

What are the words of the queen on her throne?
Spite and splendour, cold under stone
This is her promise
What is the name of the gift that she brings?
Sleepless slumber under her wings
This is her promise
Cold, cold stone
Cold stone that buys and baits you
Cold stone that hides and hates you
Older that pride and oyre
Older that flood and fire
Here the swiftest beat will stop
Here the strongest man will fall
