[The Good Poet, Verse 1]
What comes after countless?
Lovers, friends, war
I’ve had countless
A perfect rose needs not a thorn, it’s doubtless
That permanence has bred in me, fragility
Mmm
[The Good Poet, Verse 2]
Countless
Mothers, sons, knights
I’ve killed countless
Imperfect men need not their life it’s doubtless
That permanence has led to instability
Mmm
[The Good Poet, Verse 3]
But boundless
Unexplored death
Bet it’s boundless
Spirit no flesh
How profound, it
Stretches further than countless
[The Good Poet, Verse 4]
So take that sacred blade
And run me through my chest
Just look me in my eyes while you
Gift me with my death
I can tell you’re brave (just a boy)
But you’re shaking just a bit
Take heed, my brothers won’t be so quick to submit
(kill me, kill me)
[The Good Poet, Bridge]
Now kill me
I order you to kill me
[Timmund, Spoken]
No
[The Good Poet, Spoken]
What?
[Timmund, spoken]
No
[Timmund, Verse 5]
If in truth, this is your reality
Isolation and self pity, due to “curse” of immortality
Then death evades you yet
My blade won’t take the life of one who’s not a threat
[The Good Poet, spoken outro]
Hmm, I see
Then I will be a threat
