I don't know a lot about Kamelot (I've noticed they copy them a lot though) and but with all those lyrics it's like a softened version of Arch Enemy repeating and repeating themselves when "Anthems Of Rebellion" had success. ---- To their tombs the people are immured, There is their gold, treasure and wealth, The only condition is to ignore them, Those who feed on corruption and weave death Loading...
