Tonight

Close my eyes

Inhale deeply

Tilt back

And swallow

This sweet elixir

A quick fixer

My soul feels warm

My face is bright

On this night

Miracles can happen

Tonight

I will hang my enemy on a tree

And the ten accomplices

Who have torn me down

Will be raised for the world to see

And the runners

Will run

And we will fight

I will fight

On this night

I will no longer be afraid

Only I can

Save (myself)

No one else

Will redeem me

From the King

Only if I choose

To approach

Broken and submissive

Perhaps he will see

What my heart truly desires

What I long for

And wait for

If only

If only

We will rejoice

We will dance

Together in the courtyard

Of the palace

That will soon be built

And then

I will close my eyes

Tilt my head forward

Drink a small lip

He will smash a glass

And all the pain

Will recede to the past

As my soul feels warm

My face is bright
