Mother ~Quod lux~

from Anthology Vol 1 by Ephemeral Ballads

/

lyrics

Dancing upon a fragile world
Just one wrong step, it might just crack

Nurture it well, and surely it will bloom
Reaching for the light is fruitless in the end

I’ve bestowed unto you
And offered freedom
But everything is mine in this kingdom

Blessings on this world, that you and I can satisfy
Granted upon these ungrateful things
Poisonous vines have got you all entwined
Run, and then I’ll clip those wings

The children of mine have roles to play
One step out of line, a price they’ll pay!

Soon he will learn
There’s more to life out there
But to uphold order, you’re bound to your prison

Blessings on this world, that you and I can satisfy
Granted upon these ungrateful things
Poisonous vines have got you all entwined
Run, and then I’ll clip those wings

I’ve given everything
And nothing in return
Why are you neglecting me, your superior?!

Blessings on this world, that you and I can satisfy
Granted upon these ungrateful things
Poisonous vines have got you all entwined
Run, and then I’ll clip those wings
