Lyrics of “Kingdom” by Amory Pitt
Time for us to go,
Mumma said when I awoke,
Pack your bags and clothes,
Left at five without a note,
Our lives, changing all the time,
We drive all throughout the night,
And somedays I'd be crying on your sleeve,
For home had become a dream,
And...

God bless home
God bless home
God bless our kingdom I won’t go,
God bless home
God bless home
God bless our kingdom I won’t go

And I said what’s lost can’t be gained
You can try and look back
But it’ll never be the same...
Our home
Our home

Settled in the old
Country where the moors take hold,
Between the rocks and the water
We would hide and try and lay low,
Her cries haunt me every night
She tries to embrace our plight,
And somedays we’d be working on our knees
For home
Had but become dream,

God bless home
God bless home
God bless our kingdom I won’t go,
God bless home
God bless home
God bless our kingdom I won’t go

And I say what’s lost can’t be gained,
You can try and look back but it’ll
Never be the same now it’s time to arise
We’ve been mourning too long
I’m child to a wild knave
Lost to the law...

God bless home
God bless home
God bless our kingdom I won’t go

And through the sadness and madness, that they brought down
(I will wait for you)
And all the liars and the cheats that broke your crown
(I will wait for you)
{Repeat]
