A subtle madness had lay beside him Her stygian hair weaved a sacred curse Then all together, a fusion between them Forever locked in love, for better or for worse Her bewitched hands, glowing like the stars Beneath a black moon, brewed a potion so vile Within a charmed voice, she whispered her desires Crooked teeth had shown behind her twisted smile With him contained under her control He lay still and quiet, as if death were to come A sweet release he begged for, whilst she wove her vicious web For intertwined with spirit. To despair her must succumb Forever they lay together twixt an undead moon Their love for each other in a "quintessence" state Her spell remained conscious, as the secret bared in his mind Made to feel a fake euphoric comfort No more...can he escape

You kept your heart inside a glass A vessel meant to break in time I saw too late the opus failed And in a way the fault was mine I watched in the greatest dismay As the colors fade to grey But your core is sapphire blue Is that not beauty in itself? Utter the mantra, It can be salvaged. The work can only be done with faith Keep the peace so long The idea of strife exists no more ** Can’t hold you for long (I’ll see you shine one day) My strength is almost gone (coat myself in smoke) (I’ll see the change in you) (Even if the change will kill me) Hieroglyphs and mysteries Seem to be all they can see Is the cipher needed here? Can you see the change in her? Toxic tears shed by dragon eyes Under hammers is where you lie But if you can weather more, Then will you see a heart of gold credits

A smell of sulfur, the night we met One day I'd become your biggest regret The warmth of your touch to the cold of my heart But you never knew that I'd rip you apart Now I see darkness in your eyes Now you have heard all of my lies In the end it's all just wasted time Now you see I deserve to die I wallow in silence as I stare at your face Make you a promise...fallen far from grace Fill your dreams with uplifting hope Whilst your trust in me fades in my smoke Now I see darkness in your eyes Now you have heard all of my lies In the end it's all just wasted time Now you see I deserve to die "I am just like Judas...I'll betray you all And just like the devil...I'll make sure that you fall" Now I see darkness in your eyes Now you have heard all of my lies In the end it's all just wasted time Now you see I deserve to die

It’s been a wolf’s age Since you stopped to see the shadows Tracing the contours, and spiraling into the realms I had begun to think You were not ever coming back Were you too proud to seize the pike and claim your place? I speak to you through the glass I haunt your nightly walks And in the ring of torches It’s clear we’ve found our way Eyes of Peridot and garnet Flash with long expected life (saegt din Verl ocghnd tag dur Tren) Blades in The shape of the crescent god Flash as bright as the moon (vek dir Grunsig Mon!) Teeth bared A grin that holds back A stream of otherworldly spells (gyf es ynan spollsaed!) Unmask Remove the paint and runes You will not need them anymore (Vulkaumn maen gaaltbast!) No human language Will suffice to call us closer Open your minds eye, can you perceive the forms we take? Self righteous cobwebs Spun by the spiders of deceit Are ripped and torn, the banners of the blue moon in their place I’m the shadow on the blade That falls upon your foes Those are my footprints there Your feet have left behind you This chamber’s filling up with blood The corridors are darkened And with me come the others Who made you what you are

I wander into the dark, I hear something follow me Turn around to see no one, but I can hear them breathe A sense comes over me, I know I am going to die For in the mist I can see the figure writhe I find a place to lie, the frost pierces my skin As the night grows colder I can feel it hides within Noises in the dark leave me petrified Now I have accepted that I am going to die Tonight I sleep with shadows, tomorrow I may not wake Within this haunted forest I've left my soul to take

Warm was the light in your eyes when we met Now cold is the night I will never forget This hut has gone silent since that autumn day I left my belief and I threw you away In this heart an emptiness grows Can faith get us through this? We may never know Clinging to legends and shallow belief I lay my head down and I dream of relief. The music has stopped and the players moved on The voice that was singing is faded and gone The forests and lakes are now spiritless holes There’s no one left here. I will not be consoled In these minds the memory is dead Will no one remember the heroes who bled? Festivals follow, for what we don’t know There will be no harvest. We reap what we sow. The one that I loved has since fled from my side And the empty earth drank of the tears that I cried the beauty is gone from the summer sunrise I’ve watched the world wither so I’m closing my eyes. In these souls the fear will remain With all else forgotten my deeds were in vain. I will still weep when I think on that day When I burned the legends, the magic, away.
