Memory Shard
Performed by: an unknown Fae Bard
Some mortals stay far away from the lore
Place/Gathering : Feast of Chimeron XVII Date: May 2nd, 1002 M.R. Original by/Sung to: (An Innocent Man base lyrics - Billy Joel) New Tune and Filk Lyrics - Janna Oakfellow-Pushee If there's a chance of it screwing them up They hear a voice outside their windows And hope that it just goes away Some mortals live with the fear of their touch And the anger of having to be fae They will not listen to any tale So nobody jinxes their fate I know you're only defending yourself I know you're thinking of somebody else Someone who hurt you... But I'm not above Giving Her a quick shove If in-deed you would promise to run I'm not above doing anything To restore my soul if I can... Some mortals see through the eyes of the old And refuse to get a look through the young I'm only willing to hear Her cry Because I am an innocent man I am an innocent man Oh yes I am Some mortals say they will never believe Another faerie tale spoken in the dark Because they only remember too well The fae-touched are cursed from before Some mortals sleep at twilight every time Placing iron tongs right over their bed Some mortals find that it's easier to hate Than to serve anymore I know you don't want to hear what I say I know you're gonna keep branding away But I've been there and if I can survive I can keep this alive (So hopefully it won't happen again) I've not above being cruel for a while You're cruel to me? I really don't care. Some faeries ran from an impossible night Some mortals figure they can never win And although this is a fight I can lose The accused is an innocent man He is an innocent man Oh yes I am An innocent man You know you only hurt yourself out of spite Do you just take a furious delight? ...That's your decision But I'm not below Anybody I know If there's a chance of resurrecting a love I'm not above going back to the start To find out where the mishap began Some people hope for a intervention Some people just accept the past as it is But I'm not willing to be chained in the mists Because I am an innocent man I am an innocent man Oh yes I am An innocent man... |
