Blind Guardian - Mordred's Song Lyrics
I've lost my battle before it starts
My first breath wasn't done
My spirit's sunken deep
Into the ground
Why am I alone
Silence's all around
See hate will rise
So don't come closer
Fear your child
Born with a king's heart
But fate fooled me
And changed my cards
No one asked if I want it
If I liked it
Pain inside is rising
I am the fallen one
A figure in an old game
No Joker's on my side
I plunged into misery
I'll turn off the light
And murder the dawn
Turn off the light
And murder the dawn
Nothing else
But laughter is around me
Forevermore
No one can heal me
Nothing can save me
I've gone beyond the truth
It's just another lie
Wash away the blood on my hands
My father's blood
In agony we're unified
I never wanted to be
What they told me to be
Fulfill my fate than I'll be free
God knows how long
I tried to change fate
[SOLO]
Pain inside is rising
I am the fallen one
A figure in an old game
No Joker's on my side
I plunged into misery
I'll turn off the light
And murder the dawn
Turn off the light
And murder the dawn
[SOLO]
I plunged into misery
I'll turn off the light
And murder the dawn
Turn off the light
And murder the dawn!!

Blind Guardian Mordred's Song Comments
I hope you all enjoy my song. ;)
I'll turn off the Light
And murder the Dawn
Damn,too bright mix for my ears.
The story of Mordred's rebellion against his father King Arthur is an analogue of the old Persian story of the King Astyages being grandfather to Cyrus the Great - he dreamed (or was told by his Magi, depending on which version) that his grandchild would take his empire. Fearing this, he sent Hapargus to dispose of the child. Hapargus gave the child to a harmless family (as he did not want to spill royal blood) and returned with the corpse of a miscarried child as evidence. Over a decade later, Astyages figured out what happened and caught the still living Cyrus, but at the behest of his Magi allowed him to live in peace instead of capturing him. Then the Median empire ended and the Persian empire began with the Battle of the Persian Border
It's likely that some details are confectionary, they always were at the time
Interesting! I love learning something new.
8 people need to re-think their down vote at 0:39
well, in real history king arthur doesnt exist,, but there was a roman general know as ARTHORIAS who found the bases of england.. i dont know exactly if this guy had a son.. or some descendant.. but the history betwen the two its a little similar cuz arthorias never was a real king he was only a general waiting for the day rome will come again.. but the day never come and with that the roman start to call himself england (not yet, i just dont remember the exact name and dont want to fuck up..)
King Arthur was made up by Geoffrey of Monmouth out of Welsh pride and the longing for a native Briton to be a respected historical figure.
@Shane Bradman didnt know that thanks
The Artorias/Artorius is a theory based on this roman general in england,we don't know for sure if Geoffrey based his story out of this known historical figure.
@BloodScarf obvious we dont know if this is the caracter he used.. but its the one who started the kingdom known as england, and even if he wasnt actually a king he was a general and comander, he was seen as a savior but not like a jesus, but like a hero i think this guy is arthur cuz the name is similar and the caracter is at some point in the same timeline
Kel Shadowmourne Artorias is thought to have stopped a Anglo-Saxon invasion but the saxons eventually conquered most of what is now England and then made different kingdoms like Wessex/Mercia/Northumbria. England means land of the Angles/Anglo Saxons, similarly there was a Kingdom known as East Anglia. When the Danes conquered land it was called Daneland and was under the Dane-law because it was the land of the Danes. But the Welsh and Cornwall would be the people with ties to the original Britons south of Hadrians wall who might have worked with Artorias the English are basically the ones he was supposed to have fought against. But they did use roman forts for castles if that’s what you meant by he laid the foundation that England would eventually be built on. But the Romans had been building stuff on Britannia.
England would be formed by the grandson of Alfred the great while fighting Danes for a long time. This would give a slight reprieve for about 80 years until Canute the greats (danish rulers were Christians by this point but not all Danes were) father defeated the English and took the throne, he would die and Canute would eventually become king of England Denmark and Norway the great North Sea Empire. This didn’t last long after Canute death and Saxons retook control of England and the Yngling family would take the crown of Norway. Eventually Norway would invade and also William the Bastard the duke of normandy from France. The normanii the North men were descended from Rollo the brother of Ragnar Lodbrok a famous Viking explorer and pirate. Rollo helped defend Paris when Ragnar attacked it from the seine river. William would take the English throne after the battle of Hastings and the Normans would rule England for a long time as the Plantagenet dynasty. This is why the English royals always claimed lands in France because they basically invaded from France.
It’s kind of crazy the Saxons fought the Danes for so long than the Normans pretty much came in and took over longer than either the Saxons or Danes and the poor Britons haven’t been in control since Rome came and it was called Britannia and not England.
Did you know Mordred raised rebellion against his father, king Arthur. Just wanna throw that in there

How come their opus magnum doesn't have more comments?
I've lost my battle before it starts
My first breath wasn't done
My spirit's sunken deep
Into the ground
Why am I alone
I can hear my heartbeat
Silence's all around
See hat will rise
So don't come closer
Fear your child
Born with a king's heart
But fate fooled me
And changed my cards
No one asked if I want it
If I like it
Pain inside is rising
I am the fallen one
A figure in an old game
No Joker's on my side
I plunged into misery
I'll turn off the light
And murder the dawn
Turn off the light
And murder the dawn
Nothing else,
But laughter is around me
Forevermore
No one can heal me
Nothing can save me
No one can heal me
I've gone beyond the truth
It's just another lie
Wash away the blood on my hands
My father's blood
In agony we're unified
I never wanted to be
What they told me to be
Fulfill my fate then I'll be free
God knows how long
I tried to change fate
Pain inside is rising
I am the fallen one
A figure in an old game
No Joker's on my side
I plunged into misery
I'll turn off the light
And murder the dawn
Turn off the light
And murder the dawn
I plunged into misery
I'll turn off the light
And murder the dawn
Turn off the light
And murder the dawn
There's nothing to solve. Excelent!
