Falconer - Redeem and Repent lyrics
[Falconer - Redeem and Repent lyrics]
Trapped in a travesty of jokers at the lead
Soundtrack to this comedy
A lament to those who read
Honour flanked intellect and fell
Into the well
Like a child's reasoning would open
The gates to hell
The sceptre is stolen by a jester in
The king's court
Beware of his temper, beware of his pride
Wise men bang their heads against the wall
Heed the sinister call
Clowns have the word fools have the day
Meanings are blurred as sense fly away
Let's sing the anthem of mental eclipse
As the children play chess with the world
Hearken the choirs, redeem and repent
The winds of doom sweep
Across this pleasant land
With a sound of prophecy of
Darker times at hand
Heedful enlightened rule slips into the void
Out from the shadows steps a cranky boy
Soundtrack to this comedy
A lament to those who read
Honour flanked intellect and fell
Into the well
Like a child's reasoning would open
The gates to hell
The sceptre is stolen by a jester in
The king's court
Beware of his temper, beware of his pride
Wise men bang their heads against the wall
Heed the sinister call
Clowns have the word fools have the day
Meanings are blurred as sense fly away
Let's sing the anthem of mental eclipse
As the children play chess with the world
Hearken the choirs, redeem and repent
The winds of doom sweep
Across this pleasant land
With a sound of prophecy of
Darker times at hand
Heedful enlightened rule slips into the void
Out from the shadows steps a cranky boy
