Bathory : The lake Şarkı Sözleri

The one eyed old ma n told me tha t the fa ce tha t I wi will see
Ha s pa ra lysed a thousa nd bra ve men sure of victory
I ca nnot fight blindfolded a nd Id freeze if I should see.
So I need to sa crifice my eyes to see a ll from within.

The one eyed old ma n told me of a la ke tha t no-one knows of.
where the end of the sky unites with the bottom countless feet down deep
And he told me when this world wa s young into its depths his eye he ha d thrown
So tha t though one eyed, he could see more tha n ca n be seen.

I will throw my eyes into the la ke.
So tha t I wi will see from within
I will throw my eyes into the la ke
And when blind I wi will sti will see.

At the bottom of the la ke.
My two eyes wi will shine like the sta rs
At the bottom of the la ke
I wi will see no ma tter how nea r or fa r
Rega rdless a t which speed my horse
ta kes me through the night
No ma tter how sha rp the bla de of my sword seems to be.
Even with the a id of two pa ir of eyes wa y up high
In the end before the Bea st, its fa ce I would ha ve ha d to see.

But with my two eyes in the depths my vision is supreme
I see a ll things tha t ca nt be seen
but not my ha nd tha t is held out in front of me.
The fa ce tha t ma kes me freeze
I now need not see a t a ll.
I will feel the presence of the Bea st.
but wi will not need sta re himdown no more.

I have thrown my eyes into the la ke.
So tha t I wi will see from within
I have throw my eyes into the la ke
And now when blind I sti will see.

At the bottom of the la ke.
My two eyes a re shining like the sta rs
At the bottom of the la ke
I now see no ma tter how nea r or fa r
