Valley Of The Blades

The sun does shine over our backs

And no matter what

Eyes aim forward, past this heat and sweat

Dust clouds reveal the rocks

The glimpse of horrors laying dormant

Burrowed throughout these hills

All the torment, for years that forewent, their souls the evil filled

Pressing on, remains of that passed through, they met their end

Then before our eyes, they appeared, the flesh scarce from them

With deadly cold steel, and skeletal hordes decapitate those that near

In their screams, stating their plea, join us now, you belong here

Decades of screams and carnage were made

Yet the night fades, upon the valley of blades

Tread this desert sand, the oath we've defied

Take up your sword and turn bone into dust

And what of their birthing, of screams and decay

Trapped forever, stopping what comes this way

Many years have past, countless lives were claimed

Aimless wandering led by a soul’s eternal flame

Put them to rest now, a quiet whispering

I return now to familiar and at peace
