Considering that the band has said that the entire album is about looking back on an abusive relationship (specifically with one’s family/parents), the soldier, poet and king, respectively, represent the different ways that other people can help someone move on from such a relationship, and how effective they are.

The «soldier» represents the people who physically remove the victim from the abuser, and take away the tangible power they have over their victim. It’s worth noting that «tear your city down» is first used with the soldier, and then repeated later, because even though the soldier «tore the city down», what it represents still stands in the victim’s mind.

The «poet» represents people who help the victim get over or move past their fear of their abuser. Ridicule and dissection are the most powerful tools to combat fear with, so to make sure the victim understands that the abuser no longer holds, and realistically didn’t hold, as much power over them as they claimed, «slaying them with their tongue», has more impact than anything physically tangible.

The «ruler» is the most important: it’s the more kind-hearted people who fill the void the abuser used to hold. Friends who look after people who left abusive families, new lovers after abusive exes, overall people who demonstrate to the victim how they’re SUPPOSED to be treated. The line «smeared with oil like David’s boy» likens the importance of this person in breaking the cycle of abuse to a king chosen by a prophet (and thus by God himself) to ensure the kingdom’s health.

Then, after the three finally come together, the city is finally torn down, the old ruler deposed, and thus, the victim free to move on with their lives, which is celebrated with the upbeat second half with joyous chants of «O lay, o lord», which could either be seen as celebrations of the new ruler, or as vicious mockery of the old one (maybe both?), as the cycle is finally broken.

There will come a soldier

Придет солдат

Who carries a mighty sword

Кто носит могучий меч

He will tear your city down, o lei, o lai, o lord

Он разрушит твой город, о лей, о лай, о господин

O lei, o lai, o lei, o lord

О лай, лай, лай, господин

He will tear your city down, o lei, o lai, o lord

Он разрушит твой город, о лей, о лай, о господин

There will come a poet

He will slay you with his tongue, o lei, o lai, o lord

Он убьет тебя своим языком, о лей, о лай, о господин

О лай, лай, лай, господин

He will slay you with his tongue, o lei, o lai, o lord

Он убьет тебя своим языком, о лей, о лай, о господин

There will come a ruler

Придет правитель

Whose brow is laid in thorn

Чья бровь утыкана шипом

Smeared with oil like David’s boy, o lei, o lai, o lord

Смазанный маслом, как мальчик Давида, о лей, о лай, о господин

O lei, o lai, o lei, o lord

О лай, лай, лай, господин
