Lyrics:

Long ago in days untold

Were ruled by lords of greed

Maidens fair, with gold they dared

To bare their wombs that bleed

Kings And Queens and guillotines

Taking lives denied

Starch and parchments laid the laws

When bishops took the ride

Only to decieve

Oh I know I

Lived this life before

Somehow I know now

Truths I must be sure

Tossin’ turnin’, nightmares burnin’

Dreams of swords in hand

Sailing ships, the viking spits

The blood of father’s land

Only to decieve

Living times of knights and mares

Raising swords for maidens fair

Sneer at death, fear only loss of pride

Living other centuries

Deja vu or what you please

Follows true to all who do or die

Screams of no reply

They died

Screams of no reply

And died

Lordy, Lordy, they died

Live and do or die

(Long ago were days I told…Lord they died)

(Kings and queens and guillotines…)

Live and no reply they died

(Long ago were days I told…)

(Kings and queens and guillotines…)
