Mordred's Lullaby

Heather Dale
Hush, child, darkness will rise from the deep,
and carry it down into sleep, child.
Darkness will rise from the deep,
and carry it 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... Loyalty... 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.
Loyalty... Loyalty ... Loyalty...
(only to me)
Hush, child, darkness will rise from the deep,
and carry it down into sleep, child.
Darkness will rise from the deep,
and carry it down into sleep.
My only son,
each day you grow older,
each moment I'm watching
my vengeance unfold.
The child of my body,
the flesh of my soul,
will die in returning
the birthright he stole.
Loyalty... Loyalty... Loyalty...
(only to me)
Hush, child, darkness will rise from the deep,
and carry it down into sleep, child.
Darkness will rise from the deep,
and carry it down into sleep.
