From the Kingdom's lovely rise clad of blood-spent regret 
where guilt lie subdued beyond the calm of twilight 
could not the words of the fare maiden find beauty

Of death and power proclaimed
bound of dreadful constraints
beyond "The Moral"
a boastful madness
lying of cold refrain 

Macbeth   Macbeth   your power finds beauty
for the eyes of the deceitful soul
foolish and folly unseen 

In muted perceptions
spit from the mouth of the fiery dungeon
each weary heart in-framed

From the Kingdom's lovely rise clad of blood-spent regret 
distant and foretold

From the Kingdom's final rise clad of blood-spent regret where guilt lie subdued beyond the calm of twilight could not the words of the fare maiden find beauty Of death and power proclaimed bound of dreadful constraints beyond "The Moral" a boastful madness lying of cold refrain Macbeth Macbeth your power finds beauty for the eyes of the deceitful soul greed and folly unseen In muted perceptions spit from the mouth of the fiery dungeon each weary heart in-framed From the Kingdom's final rise clad of blood-spent regret distant and foreseen
