The Sword
Album • 2012
As the night arrives the day concedes her crown In the dying light the shadows grow When the world is dark and still without a sound That which was hidden is shown Years of sorrow flood the land All that has been shall be again The dead will rise and The living must depart And what if all you've seen are lies When the veil lifts from your eyes And you face the infinite With fear in your heart? The wind blows cold and the days being to wane The lord of the dead assumes his throne When men have gone and only ghosts remain That which was secret is known Tears of sorrow flood the land All that has been shall be again And the moon shines over the sea As the mother of man Somewhere seven ships collide And seven sailors lose their lives But their voyage continues On the other side As above, So below Queen of Heaven She who knows

She wore a cloak of feathers And rode a mare of purest white A silver chalice in her hand A look of sadness in her eyes A thing of beauty to behold But a sorrow to possess She'll take all that you offer Until there's nothing left Face hidden in shadow Beneath a hood of quills The pinion of her raiment Conceal all her ills Beneath her cloak of feathers Lies a body soft and fine Eyes of hazel green Flowing hair as dark as wine A thing of beauty to remember But a sorrow to forget She took all that i gave her Till there was nothing left Of owl and of raven Of peacock and dove Of swan and sparrow Woven with her love Face hidden in shadow Beneath a hood of quills The pinions of her raiment Conceal her ills

Beneath a dimming sun great cities moulder and decay In brooding nights of gloom and on through melancholy days In the manses of the mages great magics still hold sway And those who dwell within are wont to say As the sun fades from the sky This ancient earth prepares to die Here at the end of all time A slow demise so saturnine As aeons pass unheeded subtle sorcerers parlay Among the haunted hills strange creatures stalk unwary prey There may come no tomorrow so all live for today And the crimson twilight turns to grey As the earth prepares to die The waning sun fades from the sky Here at the end of all time Our slow demise becomes sublime

They speed us unto our doom Turn the earth into our tomb Deserving no less than death They know nothing They give nothing They love nothing They are nothing Your life is insignificant Your thoughts are of no consequence All that you know will one day be gone You know nothing You see nothing You get nothing You are nothing

Is the time right to find a new religion Under the ground way down below Into the light with fear and superstition Stumbling around and down she goes Oh, she wonders How much there is to know And how long it will take her To reap what can be sown Seven sisters sobbing by the shore Longing for the lost loves whose ships sail no more Waiting as the hours pass them by Growing weak and weary as one by one they die Is the time right to find a new religion Under the ground way down below Into the light - forget your superstition Follow the sound on down the road Oh, he wonders How much there is to know And how long it will take him To learn it as he goes Spring submits to summer Summer bows to fall Autumn's leaves lay down and die At the winter's beck and call Seven sisters sobbing by the shore Longing for their lost loves whose ships sail no more Waiting as the hours pass them by Growing weak and weary until one by one they die

They're coming for us in the dead of night They won't ignore us Prepare to fight We knew this day would come Blackened souls fed by fear and hatred Come to defile that which we hold sacred It's them or us That's all they know From the darkness the roar of engines They ask no quarter, none shall be given They come to claim all that you own Hear the sound, see the lights in the distance It's coming down - the battle for existence Show no mercy They'll take all they can Set aside your peaceful ways Prepare for war Melt down your ploughshares And take up your swords We will see the flesh laid low The bodies fall The Most High that none may know Watches us all They're coming for us in the dead of night They won't ignore us Prepare to fight They come to kill That's all they know Set aside your peaceful ways Prepare for war Melt down your ploughshares And take up your swords We will see the flesh laid low The bodies fall The Most High that non may know Watches us all

Summoning spirits of dread Before an altar of sacred fire She sings the hymns of the dead Glorifying her holy sire A goddess in human form Dark hair crown with a glowing nimbus She has the eyes of the storm Like the sea in a raging tempest So strikes the Queen Of The Air Like a blow from a titan's hammer Let mortal women beware For none can match her unearthly glamour

Set adrift in the multiverse. On the whims of fate. In thrall to the demiurge. We all await escape. Darkness and light entwine. Everything is all the time. All around you points alive. Everything is all the time. From beyond the waveform, breaching the wall. Giving birth to a universe, mother of all. Living information, transverging space-time. Flowing down from the over world, into the mind of mankind. Darkness and light entwine. Everything is all the time. All around you points alive. Everything is all the time. You want to live for eternity. To see behind the veil. Everything comes around again. The serpent eats its tail.

Bound for the black country as the light recedes behind Upon the white odonatar Witch's vision as their guide Be wary and keep watch tonight Make sure your weapon's at hand Here in the land where shines no light death can strike you where you stand There in the ruins borne of darkness Approaching the altar as the arrows begin to fly Beware the tribes of night They take no one alive So star wary and keep watch tonight Make sure your weapon's at hand Here in the land where shines no light death can strike you where you stand.

When you get up in the morning and the light has hurt your head The first thing you do when you get up out of bed Is hit that streets a-runnin' and try to beat the masses And go get yourself some cheap sunglasses Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah Spied a little thing and I followed her all night In a funky fine Levis and her sweater's kind of tight She had a west coast strut that was as sweet as molasses But what really knocked me out was her cheap sunglasses Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah Now go out and get yourself some big black frames With the glass so dark they won't even know your name And the choice is up to you 'cause they come in two classes Rhinestone shades or cheap sunglasses Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
