The Knight Of An Endless Night

Jane Schmetterling

Compositor: Jane Schmetterling

How can I forgive you, my son?
It is too much hard!
It is too much hard!

I come from the darkness of eternal nights
Like a hungry dragon in hell
I'm the worst of the knights
I grew up stealing and disgracing
Completely rejected and cursed
In every reborn life, I was smarter
Fresh meat and sweet blood of virgins

How can I forgive you, my son?
It is too much hard!
It is too much hard!

I created my shadows
Hating kind words and good gestures
Every nice bud or blossom
Torn apart in green meadows
By my hands
They were deflowered and dead
I'm in chains
They tortured me! I'm mad
In the garden of God, they won't sleep!
As my slaves in hell
They will never be free!

How can I forgive you, my son?
It is too much hard!
It is too much hard!

I'm in chains on a stone burning in flames
Like all monsters
Paying for their crimes in the caves
And all those spectral young virgins
Around me, are singing sacred hymns
But the power of that flower on the cliff
It's my scary secret, and I feel no relief

How can I forgive you, my son?
It is too much hard!
It is too much hard!

I can hear that sentence
For a million times again and again
At the end of every song from the virgins
Awful sounds are consuming my brain
Caught in flames, blind and mad
He's a devilment
He can't see his own point of enlightenment
One day he'll be open to his consciousness
His freedom depends on forgiveness

For the first time, I'm afraid
How can I have a heart?
How can I beg for your pardon, my mom?
It's so hard!

How can I forgive you, my son?
It is too much hard!
It is too much hard!
