lirik lagu the mechanisms – once and future king
[verse 1: jonny d’ville]
a broken man lies in the rust that’s stained his whole life through
the blood that pools beneath him doesn’t change the metal’s hue
like rain fall long forgotten, mordred’s tears in his wounds do sting
to arthur in his arms he sings, ’you’re the once and future king’
[verse 2: jonny d’ville]
galahad’s blind faith, gawain’s blind hate could overcome his might
his lovers’ eyes he’d last seen gleam in the pin of his gunsight
from the wastes his child came bringing revelations of all things
arthur didn’t see, and now he’ll be, the once and future king
[verse 3: jonny d’ville]
loved only by a woman whom he’d been taught to despise
mordred’s gift to arthur could be love in his own eyes
fating him alone to keep the life to which he clings
he sends him out, into the dark, the once and future king
[verse 4: jonny d’ville & mordred]
[overlapping]
a kiss upon his forehead binds at last his son’s goodbye
(we could saved them all, yet you could not see)
just one more shot will send him out into the endless sky
(now you’ll always be the once and future king)
here at the end of history, as the final high noon rings
(the key was in our hands, yet you could not see)
mordred sits and waits without the once and future king
(now you’ll always be the once and future king)
[verse 5: jonny d’ville & mordred]
[overlapping]
faster now and faster in the sun the station sets
(i fought to save your dream, yet you could not see)
its people d-mned, doomed by a man who’s lost all his regrets
(now you’ll always be the once and future king)
but as it burns so far above a second star’s shining
(i fought to gain your love, yet you could not see)
while his world it dies, he’s left alive, the once and future king
(now you’ll always be the once and future king)
