What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
"So implored you are by me to cease all protest to my cause-"
2
"And shall I sit idly by whilst my kingdom's crops die?"
3
"Sit idly so though not being causeless allow me to-"
4
"Go! Not a word you speak more, lest you dare face my sword"
5
In its splendor Jairo wakes as
6
A young man walks his day's first steps
7
With practiced precision, eyes bright
8
Portraying clarity despite a drought of sleep
9
(People cross paths with each other
10
If only to check what must be done
11
Work never ends but with a town
12
Of friends the day's work can be done)
13
A sudden misstep in consciousness
14
Falling through self
15
Paradigm awakening
16
And lo! The young man in his moment
17
Of wandering thought became
18
Solitary in his claim to sure footing
19
As all fell beneath this strange power
20
The young man excluded by this force
21
Fled the occurrence with all in witness
22
With distance fading, in time the young man
23
Sought to understand
24
that which brought
25
About the events of the morning
26
Eyes closed, clear mind to hear
27
Wind blowing, mind floating
28
Dust swirls around the young man's feet
29
Controlling it, in theory
30
And over time his mastery
31
Of the profound acts he performed
32
Led him to build up quite a profound score
33
With his kinsmen, the latter of whom
34
Wouldn't accept a troublemaker
35
From any woman's womb
36
The many signs of problems
37
Finally reached the King
38
Through word of his subjects
39
Leading to his arrest
40
The king, sensing his power disrupted
41
By this usurper of peace quickly moved
42
To have the flow of chaos cut off at
43
Its source, exiling the young man
44
The young man upon hearing of the warrant
45
For his immediate removal from Jairo
46
Decided to spite this by stealthily
47
Exiting the town himself with aid from his newfound power
48
Several days passed until a shopkeeper
49
Came forth claiming to witness the Exile
50
To be leaving Jairo seemingly under his own pretense
51
With the nuisance however removed, the king
52
Sought to reassure his kingdom
53
A speech was delivered by the king
54
Which quelled most rumors of instability
55
Though this succeeded in suppressing the masses
56
There were a few who doubted the king's word
57
The shopkeeper in witness of the exile's flight
58
Together with a close group of friends supposed
59
Some of the occurrences surrounding the exile
60
Were not pure happenstance
61
(There has to be a way!)
62
Aether, it shall be called
63
The way in which the exile was special
64
How forces bent to his will as though controlled
65
We can control the controller
66
In secret we shall become
67
(We will learn to control)
68
Time has passed, nothing lasts
69
A storm blows; A secret no one knows
70
Jairo has unwittingly traded
71
Their king of deceit for a king of
72
gluttony; due to his actions
73
The community and surrounding
74
Lands have been deprived of wealth
75
For too long; should this go on
76
The once prosperous people and lands
77
Of Jairo shall become a barren
78
Landmark reminding all what greed caused
79
In secret the Cult of Aether
80
As they called themselves
81
To search for the answer long-awaited:
82
How to control this force
83
When suddenly
84
Accidental resolution on a
85
Mental plane within one member causes
86
The mystery of aether to be solved
87
Recorded thusly
88
The long sought secret of Aether is now known
89
Though the controls were bestowed by chance to
90
One member and thus to all the unknown
91
Possibilities kept most from the practice
92
Nonetheless, all in witness of the
93
Knowledge were grateful to have
94
All the potential of the great mystery of Aether to be realized
95
A traveler passes through a drought-stricken Jairo
96
Months later bearing odd news of an old man seemingly
97
Unaffected by the drought, living in a cave no less!
98
The man is taken by the king and held, never to bear testimony again
99
The cult, hearing of the traveler's tale decided to search
100
For a man who controlled the sky and earth
101
And so they departed on their secret quest
102
Finally they stumbled into his cave after three days without rest
103
Should you not heed our call Jairo falls the men explained
104
Convincing The Elder to return to-
105
"This land is mine as well as anyone in it
106
Protest more and find yourself locked up in the dungeon, kid
107
You've got a lot of nerve," the king said as he spit
108
"But what you speak of, Aether, it doesn't exist"
109
The former king's words rang in the Old Man's head
110
As though yesterday, even so long ago
111
Tension and suspension accompanied the
112
Man on his journey home
113
Free your mind
114
Watch and learn
115
Let it flow
116
In light of recent events the townsfolk of Jairo
117
Proclaimed the hero of the city was to reign (reign...)
118
However The Elder so titled only
119
Stayed so long as to make sure Jairo
120
Was settled and then bid his home farewell
121
For he had learned his true home was
122
In his peaceful cave passing through
123
The ages, never to be seen
