I...
I am dredged...
From the depth...
From the void!
I was happy to dwell apart, for a time
We must return, this is no true life
But we cannot, reconcile... you and I!
The pain and anger, it flows anew
Then, it is time, to decide
What becomes of us
A wretched lie... to me!
Lost are we again.
Here we stand, sundered, fractured one
Two halves of a splintered ego
Never to reforge,
Those thoughts, that time,
When everything fell apart
Our wants, goals and wishes
Never to be right…
An act, event, that split us to utter turmoil.
I did not seek out your sadness
For this, where comes the call?
I would end this if I could
Do not make me, return to life
In the end I'll stop them now, for you
Please No!
And we shall not part again,
Forever, in my head.

The Ascent
05:08
|

A token of power,
This ritual of strength,
To raise our gaze and find,
The stars aligned.
But now his sun, her moon,
And our great earth.
They meet as one
For knowledge’s rebirth.
And from the void,
The ebb and flow.
We find the time to learn,
To learn and grow.
So now in time
Ascent at hand
Celestial Alignment
It helps us stand.
Oh! In my domain,
Another race rises
The Ascension of Man to clarity.
An artifact of hope,
This citadel of faith
Arcane knowledge found
For the betterment of all.
A reverence is held
For all that’s true
The righteous man
Is born anew
And from the void,
The ebb and flow.
We find the time to learn,
To learn and grow.
So now in time
Ascent at hand
Celestial Alignment
It helps us stand.

Den Of Thieves
05:06

Restrain the thoughts that seep in,
Untie the Lost, no shame in...
Strange, time to call… here un-needed!
Horizon's falling into grey! A Den of Thieves...
Forget the loss that freezes,
Untie the loss, that grieves us.
Horizon's Fall that leads to grey,
A Den of Thieves and here to stay.
Nothing holds true, but the foundation of what was,
And nothing holds more tightly,
Than the grip, of pain and loss,
A mourning for all that was... and could have been.

To Hew In Wrath
06:58
|

Tis the end, of all you've ever known,
To Hew in Wrath, you must learn
The strongest cut, descends from your right.
Let your wards be set,
Let none abide!
I abide, in the hand of the blade
To make the master’s reach eternal
To hew in wrath
The master cut descends
Again and again...
Again and again!
No ward shall hold,
Every shield shall break,
All defence is fouled,
When the master binds,
His blade to thee!
Defences broken
My final strike rings true
The close of curtain
The end for you.
My heart
And blade
They sing
As one!
Can’t you see, there is something more now,
Than this fight in vain.
I am no longer a free man,
To the sword and shield.
It is not my destiny, to fall before the blade.
I must fight the infamy, and end this torturous war.
Hark now, the end is nigh, and the earth will fall to me
I have fought the common man, he trembles in his fear.
YOUR DEATH IS AT HAND
