Lyrics |
Once a year the white robes go on a quest In search of a virgin, a child of innocence Born of Apollon, divine is the heritagechosen by foe to accomplish a holy task Bearer of pain, Bearer of painlighten the burdens of woe Bearer of pain, Bearer of painheal the wounds of the city I bear your weight upon my shoulders I bleed for you and pray I hear your moaning in my mind I comfort night and day From my tower to your foundationsmy soul reaches through your walls Market square of guarded bastions I answer to your calls The tears of the city wiped away by summer breezethe pain is lightened by sweet, sweet dreams The cries of despair are silenced with a lullabysleep my child, I'm with you, we are one Bearer of pain Now a year, her chamber is opened againled by servants, the old one is barely sane Marked by her burdens, the guardian can finally restreplaced by another, carrying on the continuing test
