LyricsEdit
- Children of the land do you hear
- Echoes of truths that once rang clear
- Two souls intertwined
- One true love they did find
- Bringing land and heavens near
- But flames that burn full bright, soon fell dark
- Memories dimmed by shadowed hearts
- In the waxing gloom did wane the lover's moon
- Watching as their worlds drift apart
- One soul's cry
- A passion dwelling within
- Sacrifice, a final plea to her kin
- Yet this bond of hope, by treachery was broke
- Scattering her words to the wind
- Swelling over long,
- Seas of blood, are a song
- And death an afterthought
- To those who fight for naught
- A throne, lying empty
- A reign, incomplete
- Alone, for eternity
- A pain, without cease
- Children of the land, answer this
- Why must you turn to empty bliss
- Tell me why break trust, why turn the past to dust
- Seeking solace in the abyss
- Tell me why create, a circle none can break
- Why must you let go, the life you were bestowed
- This I fear I'll never know
- Never know
