Long ago in days untold
were ruled by lords of greed
maidens fared with gold they dared

to bare their wombs that bleed
kings and queens and guillotines
taking lives denied

starch and parchment laid the laws
when bishops took the ride
only to deceive

oh I know I
lived this life afore
somehow I know now

truths I must be sure
tossin', turnin', nightmares burnin'
dreams of swords in hand

sailing ships, the Viking spits
the blood of father's land
only to deceive

living times of knights and mares
raising swords for maidens fair
sneer at death, fear only loss of pride

living other centuries
deja vu or what you please
follows true to all who do or die

screams of no reply
they died
screams of no reply

and died
died
lordy, lordy, they died
