Wolfsangel - Lullaby lyrics

rate me

In a rusty ruined tavern<br />

Face to face they sat all night<br />

One was good, another evil, <br />

They had dice and ale to fight<br />

<br />

Good was dressed in long white cloak, <br />

Red coat wore another man<br />

Wolves a-howled and ravens croaked<br />

Three eyes watched at dice as one<br />

<br />

In a rusty ruined tavern<br />

Face to face they sat all night<br />

One was good, another evil, <br />

They had dice and ale to fight<br />

<br />

Many bets were made by players<br />

Many crowns were spent that night<br />

One was good, another evil, <br />

Thus they had a lot to fight<br />

<br />

Final round - they're to throw<br />

Once and winner takes the bank<br />

Only one appeared for old man<br />

But another's dice was blank<br />

<br />

Evil looked with growing hatred, <br />

Heat was both in air and mind<br />

So he turned into the fire<br />

Good had vision of a kind<br />

<br />

One was thrown for eye and water<br />

One - the water rears the vine<br />

One - the rival is immortal<br />

One - we have one face and sign<br />

<br />

Nothing thrown for tree of wisdom<br />

Nothing - arrow mistletoe<br />

Nothing - is the evil guilty?<br />

Nothing - is he friend or foe?<br />

<br />

Fire vanished, empty chair<br />

Was aside of good old man<br />

Void in jug and void in memory<br />

Were there three of eyes or one?<br />

<br />

So the good rose up his brimmer, <br />

Drained it dry and fell asleep<br />

Ravens croak and wolves a-howling<br />

Were enough for dreams to keep<br />

<br />

Weaver smiled and turned the spindle<br />

And a day replaced the night<br />

One was good, another evil, <br />

But there's nothing more to fight
