When things began it was all new and fresh,
I came for you lest we forget
The time we met and the time we touched
Beyond our dreams skyward we launched
Of something else our dreams were forged
Like the furnace of a blacksmiths cause
We held each other and felt that glowing warmth
Of slowly learning to trust the dawn
No words I have to right the past
No songs to sing and take it back
No hope is left as it turns to ash
No Light shines through what was meant to last
A mighty castle was built upon our shores
With turrets and towers and gargantuan walls
A bastion of Hope passion and desire
With callous cruelty it was beset by fire
The walls did splinter and the earth shook
As a scarlet dragon came to claim his due
The princess walked forth to accept her fate
Her forgotten prince coming much too late
No words I have to right the past
No songs to sing and take it back
No hope is left as it turns to ash
No Light shines through what was meant to last
Such is the misery so keen the pain
His heart is stricken, mortally slain
No vengeance he may pursue, nor a Dragon fight
For his princess left him in the dead of night
Secrets and whispers herald the Dawn
The vultures take flight and circle their lord
Picking at scraps and gorging on eyes
The Kingdom in turmoil slowly dies
No words I have to right the past
No songs to sing and take it back
No hope is left as it turns to ash
No Light shines through what was meant to last
When things ended it was all old and dead
I came for you but from me you fled
The time we met and you spurned my touch
My dreams muffled within the dust
Of something else our dreams were lost
Like the touch of the morning frost
We held each other and you wept and mourned
And I quickly learnt to envy the dawn
No words I have to right the past
No songs to sing and take it back
No hope is left as it turns to ash
No Light shines through what was meant to last
