tea leaves and burned hair
take prudence and take care
one day it all ends
the mortals shall transcend
but it keeps those spirits out...
days long
death in threes
the nightjar calls for me
candles of blue flame
the horror of our shame
ghosts walk among men
heed lessons that they send
under the moon's spell
your sparrow
my passing bell
the armies out to the field
the war is signed and sealed
the prophet returned on a stake
their will is forged awake
the forest burned for the trees
the bodies up to their knees
the wicked soon to be maimed
the righteous forever famed
the wind it carries away
the air of madness
the bellows fanning the blaze
burn the vanquished
the mire ends today
the strong left standing
they are all fighting in vain
and they fight for the honor...
to reign!
