See them standing in the foothills waiting for the kill
On wings of fear the terror sweeps into the city peace
To defend, this is the pact
But when life's scorned and damage done
To avenge, this is the pact
On wings of vengeance Taarna finds them
Death to barbarians
To defend, this is the pact
But when life's scorned and damage done
To avenge, this is the pact
Flying over the oasis she is captured and that boy fell down
Feeling (deee)
Close my eyes
And I am them
I feel I'm falling down in a deep dark hole
Put him down, the soldiers said
I'll put an arrow in his head
But the bird flew off instead
To save his master, on his back she fled
Her time has come
Riding the bird, high in the saddle
She gets a chance to fulfill the pact now
As the leader swoops from the clouds
She sticks him with the sword, then she throws him down
The enemy shrivel and die
The enemy shrivel and die
To defend, this is the pact
But when life's scorned and damage done
To avenge, this is the pact.
On wings of fear the terror sweeps into the city peace
To defend, this is the pact
But when life's scorned and damage done
To avenge, this is the pact
On wings of vengeance Taarna finds them
Death to barbarians
To defend, this is the pact
But when life's scorned and damage done
To avenge, this is the pact
Flying over the oasis she is captured and that boy fell down
Feeling (deee)
Close my eyes
And I am them
I feel I'm falling down in a deep dark hole
Put him down, the soldiers said
I'll put an arrow in his head
But the bird flew off instead
To save his master, on his back she fled
Her time has come
Riding the bird, high in the saddle
She gets a chance to fulfill the pact now
As the leader swoops from the clouds
She sticks him with the sword, then she throws him down
The enemy shrivel and die
The enemy shrivel and die
To defend, this is the pact
But when life's scorned and damage done
To avenge, this is the pact.

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

American Town

Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
"Vengeance (The Pact)" was originally titled "Taarna's Theme" - the song lyrics are taken from the last story in the movie (with Taarna, the warrior woman who rides the giant bird).
The apparent reason for the song not being used is that it told the 17-minute (in the movie) story in 5 minutes. The soundtrack was finally officially released on CD in 1995, and an updated version of the movie was released in 1996.
No need to question the meaning of this song but I've always felt it should have benn in that scene of "Heavy Metal" along with the song HM. I think the soundtrack would have benefitted.
Beautiful poetry. Well, beautiful not in the sweet gentle way but beautiful nevertheless.
