The city is old and dark and cold and full of things you can not imagine
Run, run just as fast as you can home through echoing canyons
Or stay, stay just a little while longer and see what you will see
If they want you
They will take you
There is nothing that you can do
If you stare in to the night.
Do not fear the shadows, but the lights behind
When they look in to your eyes
When they look in to your eyes
Oh please, please, please: look in to my eyes
One last time
Before I die
The secret on your lips falls without ever being told
The love in your heart will die before your blood even starts to run cold
You are nothing, you are nothing, you are nothing to them
But bones and blood
If they want you
They will take you
There is nothing that you can do
If you stare in to the night
Do not fear the shadows, but the lights behind
When they look in to your eyes
When they look in to your eyes
Oh please, please, please: look in to my eyes
One last time
Before I die

This is a great adaptation of Arthuriana and a brilliant narrative album. I love how the queerness of the characters is handled as an integral part of the narrative and plot development without it being the end all be all of the characters themselves. my boy Gawain deserved better though maritarvaniti
