Filk
from Joseph and his
Technicoloured Dreamcoat
Close
every door to me
Hide all the world from me
The one Ring has seized me
and forced out the light
Do
what you want with me
Hate me and laugh at me
Darken my daytime
And torture my night
If my life were important I
Would ask will I live or die
But I know the answers lie
Far from this world
Close
every door to me
Take those I love from me
To be a Ringbearer is to be alone
But I hope I shall find
My own peace of mind
For this quest is breaking me
And I am on my own.
Close
every door to me
Hide all the world from me
Chained to the darkness
My soul strives to fight
Just
give me a duty
And scorch it with pain
I took on this burden
Why should I complain?
I do not matter
I’m only one hobbit
Destroy me completely
Then throw me a away
If my life were important I
Would ask will I live or die
But I know the answers lie
Far from this world
Close
every door to me
Take those I love from me
To be a Ringbearer is to be alone
Oh, I hope I shall find
My own peace of mind
For this quest is breaking me
And I am on my own.
