Mordred's Lullaby

Heather Dale

Hush, child, darkness will rise from the deep, 
And carry it out into sleep, child. 
Darkness will rise from the deep, 
And carry it out into sleep. 

Guiless son, 
I'll shape your belief, 
And you'll always know 
That your father's a thief. 
And you won't understand 
The cause of your grief, 
But you'll always follow 
The voices beneath. 

Loyalty, Loyalty 
Loyalty, Loyalty 
Loyalty, Loyalty 
Loyalty, only to me 

Guiless son, 
Your spirit will 
Hate her. 
The flower who married 
My brother the traitor. 
And you will expose 
His puppeteer behavior, 
For you are the proof 
Of how he betrayed 
Her loyalty. 

Loyalty, Loyalty 
Loyalty, Loyalty 
Loyalty, Loyalty 
Loyalty, only to me 

Hush, child, darkness will rise from the deep, 
And carry it out into sleep, child. 
Darkness will rise from the deep, 
And carry it out into sleep. 

Loyalty, Loyalty 
Loyalty, Loyalty 
Loyalty, Loyalty 
Loyalty, only to me 

Guiless son, 
Each day you 
Grow older. 
Each moment, I'm watching 
My vegenace unfold. 
For the child of my body, the 
Flesh of my soul, 
Will die in returning the birthright 
He stole. 

Loyalty, Loyalty 
Loyatly, Loyalty 
Loyatly, Loyalty 
Loyatly, only to me 

Hush, child, darkness will rise from the deep, 
And carry it out into sleep, child. 
Darkness will rise from the deep, 
And carry it out into sleep.
