lirik lagu mercedes lackey - the face within
[intro: kris]
the weaponsmaster has no heart; his hide is iron cold
his soul within that hide is steel or so i’ve been told~
his only care is for your sk!ll, his only love, his own
and where another has a heart, he has a marble stone!
[verse 1: dirk]
that’s what the common wisdom holds, but common is not true!
for there is often truth behind what’s in the common view
and so it is the herald’s task, that hidden truth to win
to see behind the face without and find the face within
[verse 2: kris]
he goads his students into rage, he drives them into pain
he mocks them and does not care that tears may fall like rain
he works them when they’re weary, and rebukes them when they fail
cuts them to ribbons with his tongue, as they stand meek and pale!
[verse 3: dirk]
but will our enemies be fair nor come on us behind?
and will they stay their tongues or in their words~ a weapon find?
or wait till we are rested, before making their attacks?
or will they rather beat us down, and then go for our backs?
[verse 4: kris]
but he has no compassion, does not care for man nor beast
and when a student’s gone he does not notice in the least
and no one calls this man their love, and no one calls him friend~
and none can judge him by his face or what he may intend
[verse 5: dirk]
but i have seen him speak the word that brings hope from despair!
or drop the one word compliment that makes a student care!
and i have seen his sorrow when he hears the death bell cry!
his soul~deep agony of doubt, that nothing can deny!
[verse 6: kris & dirk]
for on his shoulders rests the job of fitting us for war!
with nothing to give him a clue of what to train us for
and if he fails it is not he that pays, but you and i
and so he dies a little when he hears the death bell cry!
[outro: kris & dirk]
and now you know the face within him~ hid by the face without!
the pain that he must harbor, all the guilt and all the doubt
the weaponsmaster has a heart so grant his stony mask
for you and i aren’t strong enough to bear that kind of task
