Kayak - When The Seer Looks Away lyrics

rate me

WHEN THE SEER LOOKS AWAY

So there you are, you've come at last

To perform your evil part

Your nature shows through every mask

For there's darkness in your heart

The goddess wears your face

But you're cast off in disgrace

You'll use your charm

And sow the seed of ruin

When the seer looks away

And the bard has ceased to play

Letting all defences down

When the seer looks away

Will the night succeed the day

While you're weaving your web of deceit

Bearing the son to your brother

I'll make his kingdom crumble

I'll cross his every quest

I'll break him

Then take him

He won't escape his fate

His knights will fail and tumble

This dream will soon have passed

No you won't break him...

When the seer looks away

You'll never take him...

When the seer looks away

I won't forsake him...

When the seer looks away

I'll teach you being humble

I'll put you to the test

Don't dream

My dream...

Your gift to him - a lethal robe

Was seen through just in time

We might have known that precious cloak

Was as poisoned as your mind

My gift to him - a child of royal blood

To save the royal line

Dealing with God's sight

But often human blind

I'm sure you've seen it all

So you know he's bound to fall

You've cast your spell

And sowed the seed of ruin

All because of my doing

When the seer looks away

Deafened by the things you say

Letting all defences down

When the seer looks away

So the schemer gets her way

And the bard has ceased to play

I'll be paving the road to defeat

Bearing a son to my brother

The serpent finds its mother...<br />
