Verse 1:
Allure of Love and Spite
One upon a time, long, long ago, there live a young witch in the land. Ah yes, she fell in love with a young prince, so the story goes.
"No need for a magic to stop time. No spell can achieve what we feel."Love bounding through every hour, joy lights the new day.
Tied up tight to a cross, she looked longing at the sky."Penitence for your crime! Penitence and your life!"If she prays, who will hear? She is drowning in their cheers. Devotion turned to dusty tomb.
"If my love was just a curse then I have only tears to shed.""Penitence for your crime! Penitence and your life!"Set alight, she will burn out bright, and with it all their spite. Feel now the weight of death, and soon.
One upon a time, long, long ago, there live a young witch in the land. Ah yes, she came to trick a young prince, so the story goes.
So now, she opens her eyes and looks up to the flames in the sky. Do not forget those embers are the final judge.
"She kept all the magic out of sight. How else to achieve what you feel?"Love burning the final hour. She'll light a new day.
Hear the witch cry out louder as she's tied up to her eyes."Penitence for your crime! Penitence and your life!"Right before shouting curses that will take away your life. Virtue they couldn't keep turned to vice.
"If my love was just a curse then I have only tears to shed."They will do what they must, let it all burn to dust.Set alight, she will burn out bright. They only do what's right. No hand to help her find her way.
"I can't believe all the fools I see. You fed them dirty lies!""Penitence for your crime! Penitence for and your life!"Searing flames rising higher as the sun beings to die. Feel now the weight of death, and soon.
"No need for a magic to stop time. No spell can achieve what we feel."Love bounding through every hour, joy lights the new day.
Tied up tight to a cross, she looked longing at the sky."Penitence for your crime! Penitence and your life!"If she prays, who will hear? She is growing in their cheers. Devotion turned to dusty tomb.
"If my love was just a curse then I have only tears to shed.""Penitence for your crime! Penitence and your life!"Set alight, let her burn out bright, and choke out all their spite. No god can help her find her way.
Like a flame burning bloody red and tearing through the sky."Penitence for your crime! Penitence and your life!"Take these tears, tell their story, and please don't forget to cry. Feel now the weight of death and lies.
Verse 2:
The Endless Night
Off through the new day's mist I runOff from the new day's mist I have comeI hunt therefore I amHarvest the landTaking of the fallen lamb
Off through the new day's mist I runOff from the new day's mist I have comeWe shift pulsing with the earthCompany we keepRoaming the land while you sleep
Bright is the moon, high in starlightChill is the air, cold as steel tonightWe shift, call of the wildFear in your eyes, it's later than you realized
Shape shift, nose to the windShape shift, feeling I've beenMove swift, all senses cleanEarth's gift back to the meaning of life
I feel I changeBack to a better dayShape shift, hair stands on the back of my neckShape shift, in wildness is the preservation of the worldSo seek the wolf and not the man
Shape shift, nose to the windShape shift, feeling I've beenMove swift, all senses cleanEarth's giftBack to the meaning of wolf and man
Verse 3:
In Thrall of Deception
Dear Rabbit, my legs are getting weak chasing you.The snow fields wouldn't seem so big if you knew.That this blood on my teeth, it is far beyond dry.And I've captured you once, but I wasn't quite right.So I'm telling you that you'll be safe with me.
Dear Rabbit, my claws are dull now, so don't be afraid.I could keep you warm as long as you just try to be brave.Yes, I know I'm a wolf, and I've been known to bite.But the rest of my pack, I have left them behind.And my teeth may be sharp and I've been raised to kill.But the thought of fresh meat, it is making me ill.So I'm telling you that you'll be safe with me.
So Rabbit, please stop looking the other way.It's cold out there, so why not stay here under my tail?
Verse 4:
An Infinite Chain
Ever on and on
I continue circling
With nothing but my hate
In a carousel of agony
'Til slowly I forget and my heart starts vanishing
And suddenly I see that I can't
Break free, I'm
Slipping through the cracks of a dark eternity
With nothing but my pain and a paralyzing agony
To tell me who I am! Who I was!
Uncertainty enveloping my mind
'Til I can't break free, and
Maybe it's a dream, maybe nothing else is real
But it wouldn't mean a thing if I told you how I feel
So I'm tired of all the pain, all the misery inside
And I wish that I could live feeling nothing but the night
You could tell me what to say, you could tell me where to go
But I doubt that I would care, and my heart would never know
If I make another move, there'll be no more turning back
Because everything would change, and it all would fade to black
Will tomorrow ever come? Will I make it through the night?
Will there ever be a place for the broken in the light?
Am I hurting? Am I sad? Should I stay or should I go?
I've forgotten how to tell, did I ever even know?
Can I take another step? I've done everything I can
All the people that I see, they will never understand
If I find a way to change, if I step into the light
Then I'll never be the same and it all will fade to white
Can you tell me who you are? Can you tell me where I am?
I've forgotten how to see, I've forgotten if I can
If I open up my eyes, there'll be no more going back
'Cause I'll throw it all away, and it all will fade to black
Verse 5:
Fortune's Veil
A twisted grin, a raven's plume,
Morwen the witch, in shadowed gloom.
Clawed companion, Fang at heel,
They joined the quest, their purpose steal.
Brave knight and bard, with mage and thief,
Unlikely band, seeking relief
From cursed crown, with power untold,
Deep in caverns, dark and cold.
Evil disguised the whispered tales of redemption's light
With silver tongue and dark deceit, they join the heroes' fight.
Spells that weave illusions, the beast hides his savage bite.
A dance of betrayal, veiled in the cloak of righteous might.
Through treacherous halls, and spider snare,
Morwen whispered, plans to share.
"The crown is mine," her dark eyes gleamed,
"Fang's loyalty, a cruel dream."
They fought as one, the final door,
Treasure gleamed, on ancient floor.
Morwen raised a hand, cold and white,
"Fang, strike now! End their light!"
Evil disguised the whispered tales of redemption's light
With silver tongue and dark deceit, they join the fight.
Spells that weave illusions, the beast hides his savage bite.
A dance of betrayal, veiled in the cloak of righteous might.
But hesitation filled the beast,
A flicker of humanity released.
He turned on Morwen, claws bared wide,
"My freedom won," his wolfish cry.
Heroes stunned, then understood,
A bond betrayed, new courage stood.
With Fang now friend, their purpose strong,
They faced the witch, and righted wrong.
Evil unveiled, no longer cloaked in righteous light
Her true intent exposed beneath the moonless night.
Illusion spells now shatter, the beast bares his savage bite.
A truth of betrayal wrapped in the cloak of righteous might.
Verse 6:
Bite the Hand
Another gun for hire and just another day
When you are done, you just abuse it, whatever you say
If you were offered some, would you wanna bite the hand?
Would you betray a friend to prove you're cold then walk away?We were born with nothin' I don't want, but you need something
You want glory, I need none and it's coming between usPeople are born with
People are born without
Some people have
And others want what some go without
Some people live free
Some people just want more
As for me I got all that I needDo you still think that
We're not brave if we don't bleed?
We've seen so much blood and violence already
How much do you need?
You howl and fight your war and talk of being free
Won't let you in, they're just using you so why won't you see?
Some people are born so much closer to the sun
Holdin' out their hands and grabbing golden rays
They are the chosen few
But we both know of course that's not you or me
And I'd be telling the truth if I said it don't matter
So how bout you?Can you tell me really you don't need it, you don't want it
If you can, cool, if you can't, the difference between usPeople are born with
People are born without
Some people have
And others want what some go without
Some people live free
Some people just want more
As for me I got all that I need
Don't got much but I got what I needSome people are always reaching
For some things that they don't need
I'll tell you now with thoughts like that there will never be enough
Some people always struggling for something that is not
I'll tell you something now that I'm really just fine lovin' what I got
Verse 1:
Hymn of Farewell
Sing to me farewell
The sweet sound off past days
Always reminds me
The life of love
In my heart delight, a happy soul
Sing slowly
The sky opens to us
Temper the lyre and sing a death hymn
Brilliant wings to fly
The life of love
In my heart delight, a happy soul
Sing goodbye
Verse 2:
Hymn of Sorrow
Trees have dropped their leaves,
Clouds their waters
All this burden is killing meDistance is covering your way,
Tears your memory
All this beauty is killing meOh, do you care,
I still feel for you
So aware,
What should be lost is thereI fear I will never find anyone
I know my greatest pain is yet to come
Will we find each other in the dark
My long lost love
Safely away from the world
In a dream, timeless domain
A child, dreamy eyed,Mother's mirror, father's pride
I wish I could come back to you
Once again feel the rainFalling inside me
Cleaning all that I've become
My home is far but the rest it lies so closeWith my long lost love under the black rose
You told I had the eyes of a wolf
Search them and find the beauty of the beastAll of my songs can only be composed of the greatest of pains
Every single verse can only be born of the greatest of wishes
I wish I had one more night to liveA saint blessed me, drank me deeply
Spitting out the misery in me
Still a sinner rapes 1000 saints
Sharing the same hell with meSanest choice in this insane world:
Beware the beast but enjoy the feast he offers
Verse 3:
Hymn of Winter
I long to imagine a change
But my heart is frozen by the winter rain
Long ago, it was all a mistake
Now my heart is finally frozen by the winter rainWinter rain
By the winter rainI feel though I could change, you found me in the grey
And I'd been on the run living like a renegade
If our wak-, If our waking life can seem
We rise to roam, let the rain fallI long to imagine a change
But my heart it froze by the winter rain
Long ago, it was all a mistake
Now my heart is frozen by the winter rainIt's cold, but I'll escape (oh-oh), has it been so long?
Now we're back from where we came
Far away, far away is the frequency
Invited are the broken but my faith is frozenI long to imagine a change
But my heart it froze by the winter rain
Long ago, it was all a mistake
Now my heart is finally frozen by the winter rain
By the winter rainMy heart is cold as ice
My heart is cold as ice
I'm out of faith, but I-
I try not to isolate, but the hardest thing to take
It feels like I'm waking up, but I keep walking in my sleepI long to imagine a change
My heart is finally frozen by the winter rain
I long to imagine a change
But my heart it froze by the winter rain
Long ago, it was all a mistake
Now my heart is frozen by the winter rain
By the winter rainI long to imagine a change
My heart is frozen by the winter rain
Safely away from the world
In a dream, timeless domain
A child, dreamy eyed,Mother's mirror, father's pride
I wish I could come back to you
Once again feel the rainFalling inside me
Cleaning all that I've become
My home is far but the rest it lies so closeWith my long lost love under the black rose
You told I had the eyes of a wolf
Search them and find the beauty of the beastAll of my songs can only be composed of the greatest of pains
Every single verse can only be born of the greatest of wishes
I wish I had one more night to liveA saint blessed me, drank me deeply
Spitting out the misery in me
Still a sinner rapes 1000 saints
Sharing the same hell with meSanest choice in this insane world:
Beware the beast but enjoy the feast he offers
Verse 1:
Memories of Long Ago
Walking around aimlessly by myself
Breathing a faint sigh, my breath turns white
Seasons change, and in this fleeting season.
My tears fall for no reason
"Even now, I still love you..."Falling sadness transforms into pure white snow
I'm always looking at the sky above me
Before this body disappears, I want to reach the wish I have now
Once more, I want to hold you
How many times have we not understood and hurt eachother
But even at those times, we were still gentle
Engraved on the ring that you suddenly gave back to me
..Was our promise that will never come true
"Even now, I remember..."These far off thoughts are just brilliant flashes in my memory
I wanted to be next to you
Even though I can't see you anymore, I'll always be next to you
I never want you to changeI can't erase those last tears that you showed me from my memory.In your heart, if I disappear along with all these snowflakes
I want to bloom in your heart once again
Don't forget the warmth of us being close together, and hugging
Don't forget even if you love someone else
I'll never let go of the memory of when I heard your voice last and so
I just want to fall into a deep sleep
Continuously falling sadness transforms into pure white snow
I'm always looking at the sky above me
Before this body disappears, I want to reach the wish I have now
I want to hold you once more"I want to hold you once more"
Verse 2:
The Light in the Darkness
When I close my eyes at times like these
I'm always searching for your warmth
The memories left behind next to me
Justify the sadness
Times passes quickly and the seasons change
But just as that day in my memory, I am waiting
For the day to meet you againWith all my love I will embrace you whole
So that sadness shall never come to you again
I want to protect youWith our farewells left unsaid
We seemed to have drifted from each other
Every time I see a familiar silhouette
I still feel a bit of heartache
As time passes by, both you and I become adults
But there will be a day to come
Where we can both laugh like the old daysWith all my love I will embrace you whole
So that sadness shall never come to you again
I want to protect youI want to protect you...
