The Journey Through Damnation

Goddess of war, serpent of doom Destroying all who encounter you But there is one who you won't kill There is one whose blood won't spill Seeker of souls, taker of heads I watch you conjure war among men I will strike each form you take Till you return to me and seal my fate For one last glory I will prevail The Morrigan she calls out my name Guarding the borders of my homeland I slay the warriors of Cruachan With bravery and battle rage I kill them all in my domain She appears to me before my eyes Baying for blood in each disguise Tell me now, how does it end? Whisper to me, prophetess of death A maiden wept as I came to the ford With bloodied shield and broken sword I could see they were my own She stood lamenting this fallen soul She disappeared from my sight I knew I would not return from this fight A black crow waits before I die As I depart, she'll watch my spirit fly

I walk among these ruins, these ruins of an age When ancient dreams of splendour came alive And our hearts thundered like the sound of a thousand men...bound for war As night unfolds I'm haunted by a sleepless dream Until the flames of the dawn break the sky Once more I long For visions of the dawn Footsteps of the fallen echo round me where I stand We are bound in sorrow and in grief Eternal twilight, under light of an evening star We forerver chase the fading star Troubled are the dreams of those whose days are these When darkness grips us all within its mire And though our hearts may long to return In memories of the past we cannot dwell Wandering ever onward, like those who went before I've tasted all that bitterness has to offer But though our hearts may lie in ruin Strength and Iron will shall see us through

Worn and weary is the soul, torn and frayed the mind This present day so far away from what I left behind The shadows that have followed me plague my memories Now that I am watching and waiting for you Quenched my thirst upon your tears Drowned my sorrows in your blood Never rest till my journey is done The wind shall carry me now Another world awaits me Another time, another place to be Silent as the sunset that warms the pale grey sky She moves among the shadows as day fades into night With every passing hour my strength begins to fail me Time holds its breath for me no more I hear your voice on the cold wind I hear your cry in the barren lands Though it pains me, when the visions come to me I dream of all that once was Another world awaits me Another time, another place to be Another world awaits me Another time, when I can stand alone

The tides are turning, the mists of war descend To break the cage of sorrow's spell Relinquish all that you perceive to be true And place your trust only to within I am the serpent's severed tongue I am the venom that lies within The darkest skies, the falling rain I am the Tyrant, hear my name One the mountains edge above ungodly earth Raise your blade and proclaim to the skies "Let the winds whip like chains across my back And bring the thunder crashing down upon me" No tempest will ever take me For I have stood on the crest of doom I turn my face towards the marching horde And brace myself for the coming storm The crimson curtain has fallen on our time So we must bow before the world And you will linger with the corpse of the earth For on this field of war, a storm shall rise
