"Vicious Circle"

To the song "Children's Crusade" by Sting,
Lyrics by Batya "The Toon" Levin and Patrick Toman

Wyvern, Scotland, nine-ninety-four
Castle besieged and its people at war
Young men with crossbows, standing unswayed
Is this how trust is repaid?

Rage and injustice run bitter and wild
A Captain despised and an angel reviled
Faith disillusioned, death's bitter blade
All of those brave souls betrayed

The Children of Ob'ron would not interfere
They're trapped in the World for one thousand years .
The Wyvern survivors stand frozen in stone
And wait there alone through the death of a nation

Allied as generals, 'gainst common foe,
Winged ones above and the day-folk below
Faith disillusioned, death's bitter blade
All of those brave souls betrayed
Is this how trust is repaid?

(instrumental bridge)

The Children of Ob'ron would not interfere
They're trapped in the World for one thousand years
The Wyvern survivors stand frozen in stone
And wait there alone through the death of a nation

Night in Manhattan, nineteen-ninety-four
Wyvern's few remnants, once more deceived
Faith disillusioned, life's bitter blade
All of those brave souls betrayed
This is how trust is repaid
