Bathory - The Lake

Bathory - The Lake слова, текст песни.

By a lake in an open part of the Eternal Woods...
Noon...

"The one eyed old man had told him of a lake. Its bottom uniting with the end of the universe, Fall into it and there is no return. To reach its bottom will take a thousand generations. When this world was anew, the one eyed old man, then a young wanderer, hidden behind a tree, had overheard two gods speak as they walked by. All the knowledge of all worlds, old and new, was kept safe in a lake in a part of the Eternal Woods. The one eyed old man had found the lake after having taken away by a magical blizzard. Throwing his left eye into its black water he had gained not only all the gathered knowledge of all the worlds. He had also been granted the sight into the future. Set to find this lake, the young man mounts his stallion. Riding with the speed of the winds high in the sky, he all of a sudden sees the sun reflected in a lake. Standing by it, he throws both of his eyes into the depths. Now he will not need to stare down the beast on the day of The Battle.
Now he had gained supreme vision offering his eyes to The Lake..."

The one eyed old man told me that the face that I will see
Has paralysed a thousand brave men sure of victory
I cannot fight blindfolded and I'd freeze if I should see.
So I need to sacrifice my eyes to see all from within.

The one eyed old man told me of a lake that no-one knows of.
where the end of the sky unites with the bottom countless feet down deep
And he told me when this world was young into it's depths his eye he had thrown
So that though one eyed, he could see more than can be seen.

I'll throw my eyes into the lake.
So that I will see from within
I'll throw my eyes into the lake
And when blind I will still see.

At the bottom of the lake.
My two eyes will shine like the stars
At the bottom of the lake
I will see no matter how near or far
Regardless at which speed my horse
takes me through the night
No matter how sharp the blade of my sword seems to be.
Even with the aid of two pair of eyes way up high
In the end before the Beast, it's face I would have had to see.

But with my two eyes in the depths my vision is supreme
I see all things that can't be seen
but not my hand that is held out in front of me.
The face that makes me freeze
I now need not see at all.
I'll feel the presence of the Beast.
but will not need stare him down no more.
