lirik lagu heresiarh - the cruel bard
this is the lay of the cruel bard
he wrote it himself in his perilous youth
and n-body knows and no other lay tells
if fate finally gave him a lesson or no
he was a bard as anyone else yet nature had praised him a gift
of its worth – an irresistible beauty
and charm of the lords, which he did not hesitate to use for
his own good
pleasure he seeked and the inevitable pain, which eventually
scorched his soul beyond recognition
so that it was never completely healed unless for the moments
when he was alone with the
splendour of nature and his love for the sky
long roads did he take and many a path and lots of young girls
fainted away to his enthralling
songs and caressing lips. yet his heart could not find any
place for a rest…
(oh) the cruel bard
he was
and his lays were fair
as dew in the gr-ss
yet his heart was of stone…
thousands of burnt villages he left behind
and thousands of hearts unmended
wherever he went he brought pleasure, then woe
to daughters and mothers and envious men
he knew it all very well, the cruel bard
but, h-ll, he had nothing at all to disown
so he just grinned as the devil himself
and all the women around lost their pride
although he sometimes did try to unlock his heart
hid under strong chest of marble and snow
yet he could not help loving anyone else
but himself and the dark of his kingly bent brows
like a motionless sculpture of a pale heathen god
the bard used to stare in a mirror of gl-ss
and he was ensnared in the webs of his own
reflection of beauty so kingly yet cold…
