Gollum Songtext

Gollum Songtext
In rivers deep where secrets sleep
Isildur′s bane still yet to creep
The precious gift revealed at Déagol
A curse that claimed his best friend Smeagol
It hides in shadows deep within
A whisper calling sweet as sin
Smeagol's hunger, heart so cold
Friendship shattered for the gold
Déagol′s blood on river's edge
As Gollum rises from the ledge
The precious whispers secrets sweet
Promises power none could beat
But in the dark the shadows lie
A treacherous path where friendships die
Saruman's grasp in vain did seek
The ring that makes all men so weak
Hidden whispers guide the way
In the dark they choose to stay
Echoes in a hollow scream
Where haunting eyes forever gleam
The precious whispers secrets sweet
Promises power none could beat
But in the dark the shadows lie
A treacherous path where friendships die
Centuries in shadows cold
Clutching tight to silken gold
Cursed and bound in endless gloom
Waiting for its fate to bloom
Waters rippled silent sigh
The Ring prepared to bid goodbye
Time had come to leave its lair
Falls from his pocket while unaware
Bilbo strolls in Gollum′s cave
Finds the Ring and felt its weight
The creature asks to play a game
One made of riddles a few could tame
Voiceless it cries
Wingless flutters
Toothless bites
Mouthless mutters
Just a minute
Wind
It′s wind!
Of course it is!
WIND!
The precious whispers secrets sweet
Promises power none could beat
But in the dark the shadows lie
A treacherous path where friendships die
This thing all things devours
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers
Gnaws iron, bites steel
Grinds hard stones to meal
Slays king, ruins town
And beats mountain down
Give us the answer
Give us the answer
Give me some time
Give me some
TIME
Now the tale takes bold new turns
As the Ring in fire burns
The final riddle comes from the hobbit
What have I got in my pocket?
As the Third Age progressed
The Valar sent five Maiar
To assist the peoples of Middle-earth
Against the gathering forces of Sauron
The Istari, those who know, in Quenya
This was the title assigned to them
When they descended into Ëa
And formed the "Order of Wizards
Among Men, it was initially assumed
That they were also men who
By long and secret study
Had acquired great knowledge of lore and arts
But as years passed, it was marked
That they did not die and
Were led to believe that
They were of Elven-kind
However, none except Lord Elrond
Lord Círdan, and lady Galadriel knew that
In actuality, the wizards were
Vassals of the Valar
Isildur′s bane still yet to creep
The precious gift revealed at Déagol
A curse that claimed his best friend Smeagol
It hides in shadows deep within
A whisper calling sweet as sin
Smeagol's hunger, heart so cold
Friendship shattered for the gold
Déagol′s blood on river's edge
As Gollum rises from the ledge
The precious whispers secrets sweet
Promises power none could beat
But in the dark the shadows lie
A treacherous path where friendships die
Saruman's grasp in vain did seek
The ring that makes all men so weak
Hidden whispers guide the way
In the dark they choose to stay
Echoes in a hollow scream
Where haunting eyes forever gleam
The precious whispers secrets sweet
Promises power none could beat
But in the dark the shadows lie
A treacherous path where friendships die
Centuries in shadows cold
Clutching tight to silken gold
Cursed and bound in endless gloom
Waiting for its fate to bloom
