Treachery

Always there, always right Takes a stand, prepared to fight But the axe is now beneath the floor Janus-faced, can't hide no more Treachery, crossed the line Burnt again, banished for life Treachery While they wait, he shouts attack When it counts he turns his back He's noble when the weight's in gold Its time again the legends told Finally sussed, the motive slipped It's only safe inside the crypt No scheming for the light of day Can he ever find another way?
