Mordred's Lullaby

Heather Dale

Hush Child, the darkness will rise from the deep,
And carry you down into sleep;
Child, the darkness will rise from the deep,
And carry you down into sleep.

Guileless 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..., only to me)

Guileless 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..., only to me)

Hush Child, the darkness will rise from the deep
And carry you down into sleep.
Child, the darkness will rise from the deep,
And carry you down into sleep.

(Loyalty..., only to me)

Guileless son, each day you'll grow older,
Each moment I'm watching my vengeance unfold:
For the child of my body, the flesh of my soul,
Will die in returning the birthright he stole.

(Loyalty..., only to me)

Hush Child, the darkness will rise from the deep
And carry you down into sleep,
Child, the darkness will rise from the deep,
And carry you down into sleep.

(Loyalty..., only to me)
