jack hardy - the nameless one lyrics

[verse 1]
when the leanhaun shee draws blood for freedom
only the nameless one cries
when she dances her victory on through the ages
under the blistering lights
well, the streetwalkers set the stage
and the characters scream from the page
and the girl who won’t tell her age offers opiate to ease the pain
but no monument cries in the bride street cellar gloom
only the nameless one lies in the tomb
as the dark lady madness plays with the truth of discipline
and she whistled him down with the wind

[verse 2]
when the leanhaun shee writes plays of passion
only the nameless one sighs
intimidating witnesses who vie for visions
twisting and injuring his words
well, there are those who suffer and learn
and there are those who suffer and turn
and there are those who just long to burn in the fire of her opiate words
as she fades from the stage we hear her call
because i take things lightly i am master of all
as the laughter mocks the call of the plaintive violin
and she whistled him down with the wind
[verse 3]
when the dark faery queen claws on the season
south where the nameless one flies
venting her victory on the red ribbon g+nius
on the trampled wings of rhyme
but the flight has become most absurd
for the four winds of desire are hers
and she is tending them all like a shepherd with her opiate cure
and the gull that flies from fishamble street
in a cholera cold he dies of the heat
not far enough from the seed of his origin
and she whistled him down with the wind

[verse 4]
when the leanhaun shee lays down her teasing
after the nameless one dies
when she calls for her pay and is sold as a slave
only the nameless one cries
we have come to the end of our play
realizing they all have our names
as the houselights melt all the stains that carved all the blame
and the poet of freedom screams in the night
as the nameless one lies awaiting the light
that two+penny opera making heads of heroes and tales of heroin
and she whistled him down with the wind
and she whistled him down with the wind
and she whistled him down with the wind
