Black Jester - The Tower And The Minstrel lyrics
Your rating:
This silent night, While the eyes of the world look at me, Has no reasons to believe What is right or what is wrong. And the kingdom will fall. Clear winter morning And the knight will be killed Clear winter morning And I'll become the justice wind. A storyteller of the plough and the bread Another hero with the light in his heart But the king is dying in a veil of solitude All the heroes are lying and I'm drowning in truth... I'm drowning in truth This silent god, While hunger and pain clash behind The golden-bloody wall Just a prayer for all, For the rulers too Mild winter morning And the knight will be lost Mild winter morning And ambition will be dust A storyteller with no saints in his tales A thousand answers for a trip with no return The king is dying in a shiver of fear Heaven's gate is barred. Not even the stars have the key... ... a broken key [Chorus:] Empty rage, Storm and flames in my head, Bursting wave on my dreams. Where's the fiddle of the oppressed? Just a torn flag... ... fades in my hands, Nothing to clasp, I'm giving up the game And the kingdom will fall. One winter morning And the knight will be naked One winter morning, Crucifixion without applause. Timeless tower with a man on his knees, Another hero mantled in frost and wind. Bohemian tower, last prison of my days In a foreign castle, While rustling trees whisper my name... No other name [Chorus] I know... the king will die - and the minstrel is being born Take care of my notes - in the jewel-case of wisdom. I'm watcher of a real story, Dripping face of misery Lost pieces of story Scattered in daily muddy wakes I heard low voices Old chants of suffering men All sons of shadow Waiting for a nevercoming spring.
