Avalon

from Master Fiend by Eilis Phillips

lyrics

You've come to the old city
are the men sleeping?
you crawled in on your belly
tried to get your king awaking
Bring me gold he cries, bring me wine
your body may be living but your soul is mine

Avalon-

See your queen is singing, with roses round her head,
she made herself a lovely halo
left the thorns for you instead
you cried out when you found
they'd locked the gates to Eden
you must enter into slumber
or else you'll serve the Demon

Avalon

Your mistress walks in darkness
I heard she feels dejected
don't tel me you neglected her again,
I guess you left us all
when you left yourself behind
now you're just a shadow with a
memory of a life,

Avalon

Now you've reached the gate
will you creep inside?
they promised you eternity
now who are they to lie?

Avalon.
