1.
There at the end where the lost ones are gathered Stripped of refinement and free of all pride If destiny allows me a place among them It's there I hope to find her haunting smile once more This ageing flesh so cold and worn A fragile shell of a life forlorn A shadow of the ghosts of old This barren host to horrors untold No mercy shown, a souls unrest A daily dread with scant redress Help me re-ignite my dormant passions flame To breathe new life, to save my name Cling to me, ease this troubled mind Reveal the things to which I'm blind Comfort the child that hides within For he's enslaved by his fear As mist surrounds a drowse returns To haunt my mind so scarred and burned Bow down and kneel before me ...your King Join me in pitied slumber....aching I ride the waves of anger I bear a devils mark I am of fire and thunder And endless dark I sow seeds of sorrow to reap my reward I harvest the torture that nurtures my scorn To walk among them where peace resides I've searched the wastelands some faith to find Through a maze of thorns beyond all fear I see my brethren and they draw near

So sad I grieve alone For from this heart all love has gone And though these words are laced The kiss I gave was forever Withered are the Autumn leaves The leaves that once filled the trees In our lonesome Summer meadow Alas her elegance forsakes her too Cherished the air we breathe, now rancid, diseased Betrayed by fates desire, the hollow words of thieving liars A scent so pure, so free was lost to me Consumed by falling grace, the Earth was laid to waste Tears cannot erase the loss of a dream to which I cling A fading memory of her smile I chase In ever-deepening sorrow I dwell Ever-lasting torment and pain As I lay to rest her silent whispers tempting me But as I rise....so far away That smile I'm chasing is haunting me

Confess to me the fear which ails your heart Devour my poisoned seed Embrace the torment that I command Forsake all thoughts of hope When night falls she calls my name - evermore As silence descends she calls my name - evermore Awake and feel my hate for you Arise and share my pain Behold my sickened hearts desire I'll crawl through bone and blood for you no more The night comes down, countless stars they shine in our spiral arm The goddess of love in all her beauty glows with celestial charm My lasting hope for him To know my pride is eternal My dying gift to her One endless dawn horizon The night comes down, countless stars they shine in our spiral arm The goddess of love in all her beauty glows with celestial charm My lasting hope for him To know my pride is eternal My dying gift to her One endless dawn horizon A veiled disguise shadows my very core When darker days draw long With no airs nor grace I held the sirens face And longed for her demise

about

They dug too deep....something was awoken from its slumber beneath the dirt of the Earth. Something was disturbed, something was released. With the shackles of rock and soil removed it tasted once more the sweetness of Autumnal air.
And so with this new-found freedom began the unstoppable chain of events that has led to the long awaited, perhaps forgotten return of the sons of nothing but misery, loss, woe and despair.....yet always just a glimmer of hope.
