[Verse 1]
Magick is a whispered word, but solid like stone
The will to rise within your blood and bones
Magick is intention that turns a song into a prayer
But so are you - my heir
[Chorus]
Nimue - the world falls apart
Side by side into the dark
Bound by love and sorcery
Your magick set me free
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
Magick is a laughing fool, a dance into the dark
A glimpse of hope within a circle of white chalk
Magick is fleeting like a song that rides on air
But so are you - my heir
[Chorus]
Nimue - the world falls apart
Side by side into the dark
Bound by love and sorcery
Your magick set me free
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
I knew it all and everything at once
I knew it all within my trance
I knew it all and I could see
That you would bring this sleep to me
I knew it all, the beauty and the pain
The [?]
I did sacrifice eternity
For a prison in a sacred tree
I did sacrifice my wisdom and my reign
To be human and to love again
[Instrumental Outro]
