#Macbeth aus Sicht der Hexen# [three female main voices] [Intro] [rolling thunder] (Thunder...) (Thunder...) Three shadows on the heath tonight, Black wind, black sky, no moonlight. Fire in the rain, eyes glowing red, [layered whispered choir] "We know the path that lies ahead." "When shall we meet again?" "When the storm has had its say." "One king sleeps beneath his Crown." (One man walks our way.) [Verse 1] Across the field the victor came, Steel on his hands, pride in his veins. Not the sword that caught our eye, But the dream he tried to hide. (haHAhaHAhaHAhaHA) We spoke no lie, We named no crime. Only whispered what could be Before its time. "Thane and king," "The night wind sang." "A spark inside his brain." [Pre-Chorus] Plant a seed, Walk away. Watch a mortal Choose his fate. (haHAhaHAhaHAhaHA) [Chorus] [sung] We never forged the dagger, We never spilled the blood. We only named a kingdom, And watched him drown the world. [layered whispered choir] Fair is foul, Foul is fair. Truth becomes a poison When desire is there. [sung] We never wore the crown, We never gave commands. We only lit the darkness Already in his hands. [Verse 2] A king fell silent in his sleep, The castle walls could not keep Guilt from crawling through the stone, Turning power into bone. (haHAhaHAhaHAhaHA) Banquo's shadow crossed the feast, Every victory fed the beast. Fear became his closest friend, Every road became an end. "More blood." "More lies." "More ghosts behind his eyes." [Pre-Chorus] Higher still, Higher climb. Every throne Demands a price. (haHAhaHAhaHAhaHA) [Chorus] [sung] We never forged the dagger, We never spilled the blood. We only named a kingdom, And watched him drown the world. [layered whispered choir] Fair is foul, Foul is fair. Truth becomes a poison When desire is there. [sung] We never wore the crown, We never gave commands. We only lit the darkness Already in his hands. [Bridge] Double (Double, double...) Burn (Fire burn...) Bubble (Cauldron bubble...) Circle round the boiling flames, Call the visions by their names. (Beware Macduff.) (haHAhaHAhaHAhaHA) (Beware Macduff.) No man born of woman (natural) Shall bring your ending. (or equal) Till Birnam Wood (thrive) Comes to Dunsinane. (alive) [spoken] Truth. "Twisted by certainty." [spoken] Truth. "Bent by arrogance." [spoken] Truth. "Spoken exactly." [sung cry] He heard a LIE [Breakdown: sole male voice] March, forest, march. Move through the night. March, forest, march. Hide the army from his sight. No man can kill me, The tyrant cried. The storm just laughed. [female:] (haHAhaHAhaHAhaHA) [Final Chorus, three main female voices] [sung] We never forged the dagger, We never spilled the blood. We only named a kingdom, And watched him drown the world. [sung] A forest came to claim him, His fortress turned to dust. We spoke in perfect truth, He fell because of trust. [layered whispered choir] Fair is foul, Foul is fair. The trap was never ours— It was always there. [sung] We never wore the crown, We never gave commands. We only held the mirror Up before the hands of man. [Outro] [rolling thunder] (Thunder...) (Thunder...) The king (hnhnhn) is dead. The heath (hnhnhn) remains. The fire (hnhnhn) burns. The rain (hnhnhn) still falls. "Another dreamer walks alone." "Another crown." "Another throne." [layered whispered choir] And we will meet again.
