Long ago in days untold Were ruled by lords of greed Maidens fair, with gold they dared To bare their wombs that bleed Kings And Queens and guillotines Taking lives denied Starch and parchments laid the laws When bishops took the ride
Only to decieve
Oh I know I Lived this life before Somehow I know now Truths I must be sure Tossin' turnin', nightmares burnin' Dreams of swords in hand Sailing ships, the viking spits The blood of father's land
Only to decieve
Living times of knights and mares Raising swords for maidens fair Sneer at death, fear only loss of pride Living other centuries Deja vu or what you please Follows true to all who do or die Screams of no reply They died Screams of no reply And died Lordy, Lordy, they died
