lyrics

Bone and cold steel
Are the only pat on the back here
Trudging leaves he feels distance
While the village fades like shrinking Alice.
He works for morning ‘till night
Endlessly sanding his father’s creations.
“Dad, I wanna make my own mark.
Dad I wanna be more than a shadow.”
“Son, you’ll die out there.
The gatekeeper tells me you’ll die.
And the king’s men all tell me you’ll die
And your suitress of course she says you’ll die.”
The only hope in ten years
Has been conversations with children.
But they too grow up
To be the kind of villains that only wanna play the hero.
“Child, you’ll die in here.
Well the pauper he tells me you’ll die.
And the sorcerer tells me you’ll die.
And the witch of course she says you’ll die.”
