Lunar Innuendo

What have I become, what remains of me;

The feeble light of dawn, scorching my skin

Cast! Cast your gaze away, there's nothing here to see

A crumbling ruin of hopes, a rotting pile of dreams

Like a stalking hawk, that looks the prey in pride

My watchtower solid stood, in Black Adamantine

The moon did answer true, my oathing for the night

Everlasting duty, unaltered in time

Oh, spinning wheel of fate

Each man's soul is put to blade

Put to the test

For the wicked, there's no rest

"You knew what I was, you see what I am

Change me... change me"

Now I crawl in the ruins of what was my life

Drowned in my blood, I thrive in my strife

The roaring God's thunder, its echoes still

My throne has become my burial mound

Slain by the arrow, a pawn sacrificed

Not dead, but the chasm to life is so wide

Forgotten, betrayed, disgraced and unhallowed

I wait for the end of a season so shallow

My essence is trapped in the midworld of dreams

A nightmare existence, the multiverse grims

A silent observer I watch from above

The feast of the worms, and my skeleton mould

So, drink the red liquor from chalices raised

A toast to the ones that were stricken by fate

Even though from my birth I was doomed to this fall

Lord, I am awaiting to answer your call…
