Geoffrey's Leap Lyrics

Crowds have gathered to see justice done

The harm felt is shared, chains of malice loosened

From the granite spawned and to the rock he returns

The bed of vraic beckons aside the crying gulls



Was it luck?

Or a rejection of one so vile?

Geoffroi, leap again



Never has one returned from the crooked pit

Where visions of wicked, twisted wretches inspire obedience

Yellowed teeth spread bare approaching death's edge

The beating of the greedy sea awaiting a crimson tide



Was it luck?

Or a rejection of one so vile?

Geoffroi, leap again



An awful smile darkly shining up from below

Cries of disbelief in the face of defiance

A solemn declaration of a sentence passed

Before a final, fatal leap of faith



Was it luck?

Or a rejection of one so vile?

Geoffroi, leap again



No preservation in the deep

Flesh and bones, stripped away

No salvation he shall reap

A life of sin, washed away



They'll never be the same

No matter our retribution

We should have protected them

Instead we cast our negligence

From Le Saut Geoffroi
