For silver or power
For love or lust
Because of grudge or fear
Out of jealousy
I’ve revealed your secrets (your intimacy)
I’ve put shame on you (wore you down publicly)
I’ve handed you over (to your enemies)
I’ve shed your blood (and took your life)
I’ll kiss you on the cheek
And strike you in the back
For my words have no weight
My deeds are treacherous
I’ll kiss you on the cheek
And strike you in the back
For my words have no weight
My deeds are treacherous
I have no loyalty
I am an oath breaker
I’ll betray my duty
I will defile your trust
I act against my blood (against my soil)
You set me free (and I chained you)
I act against my friends (my soulmate)
I’m chaos itself (the order’s enemy)
I’ll kiss you on the cheek
And strike you in the back
For my words have no weight
My deeds are treacherous
I’ll kiss you on the cheek
And strike you in the back
For my words have no weight
My deeds are treacherous
I’m the exciter of sorrows
The fomenter of vice
Robber of life
Traitor of the nations
I am the carrier of death
I am the cunning serpent
Yearning for its prey
I command and conquer
For I am the seducer of men
