lyrics

Burn these hundred years
in a thousand sips and pours
and when this fiery liquid drains away
I’ll burn one hundred more

I’ve stayed up for ten thousand nights
and prayed the sun to rise
alas my castle’s doors are boarded up
my windows black with grime.

And if these castle walls could sing,
they’d tell of days of old
when my people filled up ancient palaces
and drank red wine from chalices of gold

Oh, I’m slowly drinking faster
to render all these fading memories numb
I long for something sweeter now to drink
to rinse the taste of memory from my tongue

One two three four let some visitors arrive
knocking at these crumbling castle doors
live for dinner and i’ll drink more
this time of some intrepid strangers lives
