Castle in the Sky
Even now I scarce believe I stand,
On this castle in the sky.
Is it here that I'll free Algol?
Or is it here I've come to die?
…
No single word escapes my lips,
My friends likewise without sound.
As we dare to glance out over edge,
Upon the green of Palman ground.
…
Odin sharpens axe on stone,
Myau bears his teeth.
Noah still practicing spells,
Against our foes they'll be released.
…
And while I'm no faithful of gods,
I still offer quiet prayer.
For myself, for Nero, all three worlds,
Those who've known naught but despair.
…
For this is Lassic's seat of power,
And I've come to kill a king.
So will my triumph free these worlds,
Or of my failure, will bards sing?
…
Always lived under his shadow,
From days since I was young.
People murdered right before me,
From trees their bodies hung.
…
There were rebels, many, before Nero,
Those we called valiant.
But against our king, none of them stood,
Fell before a dark tyrant.
…
Enough delay, our march begins,
By sunset, one of us shall die.
Be it Lassic or myself,
In this castle in the sky.
