Guide For the Blind Lyrics

I took pity on mortal men
He decreed that my torment
would never end
I gave fire straight into your hand
And taught you to use it
in cold winterland

I betrayed him
for he was wrong
I saw wonders poetry and song
Loved and cherished
those mortal men
And so I needed to guide them
through the dawn of time

Once we stood together
Against your father Kronos
Now our thoughts nevermore
Can find their mutual trail

Here I am chained
to this mountain of Caucasus
Each day the eagle
it lands to eat my liver
Cold every night
Oh, how I wish for it all to end

Will this torture never cease
Time is standing still I am chained
Waiting for salvation to kill me
My circle of torment begins again...

Chained to the mountain Caucasus
Suffering all the wrath of Zeus
Trapped on the mountain Caucasus
No mortal child can understand

Suddenly an arrow sprang
Through the sky closing in on its pray
The dying eagle lies on the ground
I'm set free this I cannot believe

But still the curse of the Zeus
is upon me for evermore
And now mankind is sick and diseased
but not without hope...

She was a maiden fair and kind
Her faith would be
intertwine with mine

Here I am chained
to this mountain of Caucasus
Each day the eagle
it lands to eat my liver
Cold every night.
Oh, how I wish for it all to end

Chained to the
mountain Caucasus
Suffering all the wrath of Zeus
Trapped on the mountain Caucasus
No mortal child can understand
No mortal child can understand

Once he gave us the fire of Gods
Since he could not deny
his own heart
Pain he felt for us
tore through the night
He suffered it all alone
guide for the blind
