Mutiny - Eloy

Your father told me I can stay

But he mistrusts my unfamiliar ways

He wants to use the things I’ve learnt

Six hundred years of knowledge sorely earned

But if we can stay together

I don’t mind the things he tells me

Of defending him in mutiny

I don’t care, if you’re there, I don’t care

On the farms they’ve made a stand

Against the hated iron hands, they’re uniting

They’re backed by everyone in town

And I must ride to beat them down, how they’re fighting

But I understand their cause

To fight against the laws, they’re right

I promised to defend your father to the end and fight

The hatred’s there in their eyes

They’ll break his might

It’s no surprise if they do it

But I must take the other side

And somehow learn to stand and fight

And come through it

Though there’s little chance

That I beat bow and lance, I must

Our love drives me on

For you’re the only one I can trust
