Chapter 1 – Anne Boleyn: The Beheading

From all of the places where I have been,
The Tower of London is where my heart sings,
Where I found home,

our children would grow, and claim the Tudor throne.
From all the places where I have been...

Down on the streets the people await
My final ordeal, his final betrayal,
The place I called home,
repelled me and so will mark my grave as unknown.
Down on the streets the people await...

Here in this tower up high, all the memories collide
Our love is now deranged and will soon be erased.

I have become like her of Aragon.

May your devious lies, forever terrorize
The innocence you gave that condemned me to my grave.
Rebember who I've been, not my earthly sins,
'cause when the hour strikes you and I are alike.

The crowd's blackhearted and vile,
No one saw through his wiles,
Forcefully I stride, my head held up high.

I have become like her of Aragon.

May your devious lies, forever terrorize
The innocence you gave that condemned me to my grave.
Rebember who I've been, not my earthly sins,
'cause when the hour strikes you and I are alike.

The toxic feel of oppression,
Lifts me – hands and feet
Onto the chant the people are singing:
"We bask in your defeat!"
There! On the scaffold I see him!
The man called 'the Sword of Calais',
Now Father above, what's the use of praying
When a king is eager to slay!

Bare feet, bare skin, oh the end is near!
Henry? Why have you not come to wield the sword yourself?
Such a coward king!

May your devious lies, forever terrorize
The innocence you gave that condemned me to my grave.
Rebember who I've been, not my earthly sins,
Now the hour strikes you and I...

May your devious lies forever terrorize you!
Oh Lord lay your wrath upon him!
Recall who I've been: Anne Boleyn.
