Songs of Experience Lyrics by Principium

Principium

2020

“Small though I be
A creation of God, I am
Cherished and loved
And fed by the manna above me”
Thel ceased and smiled in tears
“Knowest thou not
That our lives are in constant exchange?
Give and take
And step off the stage when it’s time”
Thel thought that she was a being apart
Image of the weak, a weeping worm she saw
Swaddled in the Lily’s leaf
Thel gave comfort to the helpless, naked thing
And looking down on a Clod of Clay, and flеd
The Clod raised her dripping hеad and cradled the Worm
Who suckled at her breast in fondness
“We live not for ourselves here
Despite how cold I am
I gave my child Worm a crown that none can take away”
Queen of the vales, I can hear you
All that she sought would be revealed
Falling through cracks, disappearing
Watch as the gate opens for her
Shifting shadows, dancing starlight
My spirit drains, a hopeless, saddened soul
Empty vessels still lit inside
As anguish swells, my dreams of freedom die
Singing songs of experience
Knowing that you’re by my side
Singing songs of experience
You are the lion in my heart
Ever marching on into oblivion
Why dost thou cry?
Oh, my love
I have failed you and
Why don’t you try?
For again I’m alone here but
I know the path leading home is my fate
Singing songs of experience
Knowing that you’re by my side
Singing songs of experience
You are the lion in my heart
Ever marching on into experience
Ever marching on and on and on
Only time will tell if I am right or wrong
You must stay, locked away in experience
I will die here now
I will guide you, be beside you
Despite the loss, at least I found a friend
I am not a king, I am just a bard
