[Avatar - Wickedly They Play - In His Own Words songtext lyrics]
Grasshopper wept for the Ant by her grave
Tears of a homeless she'd always would save
Now he would fade out -
He'd sleep one last time
His days were all numbered
Yet his playing - Sublime
"With the death of this angel
My life also ended
There's nothing else out there
This was all unintended
I live thanks to her
Now her life is cut short
An unintentional journey to a
Much stranger port"
"Wintеr will come, it will be my last
And I'll welcomе the snow as I
Give my name to the past"
Owl had listened in silence
Now she uttered a question:
"What happened to her?"
Grasshopper answered: "Aggression"
"From the clouds
To the ground and all branches between
A battle was fought here of a size never seen
So vain that I can't accept that it's true
Between Eagles and Owls they
Looked just like you"
"Bodies fell to the ground and fled
As fast as they could
They trampled this pure one as
She did what she would
Every day working to win against time
They stole her from me!
It's the ultimate crime!"
Owl could not bare one more minute of grief
So she left the lone fiddler
Like honor leaves a thief
As she rose up and landed by a moor far away
She heard her own heartstrings wickedly play
She heard Eagle on the rise
Rounding up Eyes like cattle
Although most of them fled
He'd force them back into battle
His punishment weighed on them
All just the same
And with one voice they shouted
"The Owl is to blame!"
"She called upon us to wage war in her image!
For this we will perish
As our numbers diminish!
Curses upon you, feathered, foul witch!
We wish you all illness from
A bleeding to an itch!"
The old Wolf who had watched
Her and all things around
Went up to the Owl and
Asked "Hear that sharp sound?
The alarm of the forest
Just listen and learn
That not only tree trunks can break
Burst and burn"
"Who are you, old Wolf", Owl asked
Feeling hollow "Your tutor this dawn
So get up! You must follow!"
"Where are we going? My
Limbs have turned weary
Don't know if I can stand
This land turning so dreary"
Owl looked at old Wolf "Why should I move?
Whatever you say I'll surely disapprove"
"First we'll find safety and
Then we'll build spirit
The mob is so close now
Although you will not hear it!"
Tears of a homeless she'd always would save
Now he would fade out -
He'd sleep one last time
His days were all numbered
Yet his playing - Sublime
"With the death of this angel
My life also ended
There's nothing else out there
This was all unintended
I live thanks to her
Now her life is cut short
An unintentional journey to a
Much stranger port"
"Wintеr will come, it will be my last
And I'll welcomе the snow as I
Give my name to the past"
