Lured into your trap your henchmen are fine Masters of disguise, Keepers of my time Who think they can trap me like the lost and unsure Prey on my weakness till I succumb to your allure
Here is a place like me. Tall and tired but too stubborn to fall. I believe I have met my match when I see this place. But I am too smart to fall for it's subtle charm. They meet here, I know it and I hate the king as much as any. But there is something else praying upon my mind. The brokenness of this place, and the ghosts that seem to haunt it still draw me in. A rebel. The rebel, Tandem. I like the sound. Maybe I could work my way up to become the rebel leader. I can imagine that lust-filled king with his name on my lips, myself the leader, myself the fighter. But my days of rash actions are over. I learned that the day I was landed with the luggage I still carry in my barrel. And that luggage also means I can be no fighter. I am too heavy on my feet.
You must think me so easy the temptations you send! Entrancing, intriguing, discreet though unashamed Am I fooling you yet? to think you have won? As I stand here before you, it is not why I’ve come
But still...it calls to me. I wish for that position, that place to stand where I can oppose him and my suffering. After all I have suffered for far too long. I could just as easily leave this land but... This place is calling to me. Standing in the center of it all, my muzzle is held to the sky. I can see nothing in the murky greyness that can be counted as a sign of my alliance. I feel the pull of this place again. The feeling comes over me that I know I have to do this if I do anything at all. So f**k that king and his greedy ways. I'm a rebel. The Rebel At Last, Tandem. And now all that is left is to wait for the others.
Your fury has scarred me but reinforces my grit You may force me to stumble I will rise to my feet Then I laugh in your face free again from your hold My soul is not for taking to yours empty and cold
