The Pyre of Hope

Blinded by the waging war
Times of compassion forgotten and wasted
It's your burden, it's your call
You crawl on knees through marshes of hatred

The clouds are over your eyes now
Your friends and foes going down
And somewhere in your heart, you feel

The cries of innocence won't win you a dime
The fury on loose will just burn you down
Wash your wounds in the calm waters
Just cry and put that fire out


Hollowed is your grieving heart
You don't know what you've lost and found
So many questions you couldn't ask
The truth, smoked, instilling all the doubts

Your side has won, I wonder how?
You've gained just blames and frowns
And somewhere in your heart, you feel

The cries of innocence won't win you a dime
The fury on loose will just burn you down
Wash your wounds in the calm waters
Just cry and put that fire out

Deliverance...

The toll of the bell,
the streets filled with musty air.
With clang, the heavy iron gates fell
and an owl hooted somewhere.

Cloaked under the darkest night,
the hooded figures ride forth.
Their shadow rein the mind in flight,
the dreams of children, women and men.



A bony hand opens the door,
the only wall between good and evil.
No one saw the sun soar.
It crawled in and blinded everyone.

The screams of evil pierced the silence.
They were sublimated by the golden orb.
The slumber, defeated, jumped over the fence
as the people of the sane world rose.
