lyrics

WARLOCK'S OATH
Music & Lyrics: Alexander James Adams


I swear to do what’s right for me
I swear to keep my spirit free
To not hold true what feels like lies
To not be bound by others ties

I’ll know deception through and through
I’ll find it myself and you
I’ll do what’s right ‘gainst what is writ
And not just go along with it

I will be what I need to be
To tread the dark when none can see
To listen to the winds of change
The words of war I will exchange

I swear to risk all bonds of Clan
If they forbid free will in Man
I'll stand against my Chieftain tall
If what is sworn endangers all

BROKEN WORD,
TRAITOROUS SIGN
HAVE YOU HEARD THE NAME THAT’S MINE?

I will use any power I need
To challenge any Holy Rede
Oath or promise I will break
If Higher Truth is at the stake

I pledge to nothing held too tight
For what was wrong may now be right
I vow to never bind or tie
For as things change, then so must I

We swear our promises with all our heart
But when things change they tend to fall apart
Sometimes with Truth and Honour
One cannot have both
Sometimes there’s call to take a Warlock’s Oath

BROKEN WORD,
TRAITEROUS SIGN
NOW YOU’VE HEARD THE NAME THAT’S MINE!
TRUTH OR HONOUR:
YOU CAN’T HAVE BOTH
SO ON THESE GROUNDS I CALL THE WARLOCK’S OATH!
WITHIN THESE BOUNDS I SPEAK THE WARLOCK’S OATH!
FREE WILL RESOUNDS WITHIN THE WARLOCK’S OATH!
