Aidan J Crowley - Beneath Excalibur (Nurikabe)

Nurikabe is chained to a rock in the middle of a dark lake

NURIKABE

How can you feel the pain of me
When nothing can destroy your heart
The other day when you kissed your lover
Hot coffee and the trees in the park

You lie so easy
But you say you love me
It's the cliché of a broken heart
Seems so long ago
And the book was closed
Next the angels try to keep us apart

Lady in the lake
She wants me in the dark
Cold fingers on my back
Nimue calls me down

Tonight there is no escape for me
In the deep they work with magick and mystery

Years have passed now I am old and tired
The days grab me the eyes and throat
Then I had you
I died on Thursday
Broken-hearted I sat down under the Oak

Lady in the lake
She wants me in the dark
Cold fingers on my back
Nimue calls me down

Tonight there is no escape for me
In the deep they wait for magick and mystery

Tonight there is no escape for me
In the deep they wait for magick and mystery

Even though we hated and loved each other's
Souls wanted the peace
I am glad you went beyond before me
Your tomb is a place for sleep

Lady in the lake
She wants me in the dark
Cold fingers on my back
Nimue calls me down

Tonight there is no escape for me
In the deep they wait for magick and mystery

Tonight there is no escape for me
In the deep they wait for magick and mystery

Out of the depths of the lake Nimue appears and takes
Nurikabe in her arms then the chains fall to the earth and rocks below

In the deep they wait for magick and mystery
Tonight there is no escape for me
In the deep they wait for magick and mystery

How can you feel the pain of me
When nothing can destroy your heart
The other day when you kissed your lover
Hot coffee and the trees in the park
