Blood and Nectar




Those who dance must pay the piper

But the piper is now far away

There’s nothing anyone can do

To convince me that it’s okay


The three of swords turned up

That I failed to recognize

I ignored every warning

Now this is my demise


And the nectar wells up sweetly

But then my name is mud

I must flee the situation

Before nectar turns to blood

Blood and nectar …


I can recognize a hunter

And I even saw the tracks

I was a lonely she-wolf howling

Trying to fit in with the pack


It all was just a pipe dream

And reality is cruel

I wanted to play the jester

But I ended up the fool


Hopeful hedonistic dreams

Give rise to beat the odds

Shall I drink the wine of mortals

Or the nectar of the gods?


And the nectar wells up sweetly

But the blood is poisoned too

And the song is too sweet to resist

Which path will I choose?

Blood and nectar …
