Atop a hill, two lovers sit, A question asked, a promise made The kiss that’s shared the Fates elide For Destiny cannot be swayed
The light, the dark, their purpose clear Choose one to build, and one to break So all shall tremble out of fear For she doth mold a world so bleak
But then a hero must arise To cross her sword with evil's might And victory o'er one despised So once again prevails the light
So once again prevails the light The hero's heartache matters not Because she knows she can't lose sight Lest all shall fall to death and rot
It happened once, so long ago When Sun and Moon with Chaos supp'd And friendship could but bloom and grow To drink their fill from plaided cup
But Nature can't be parley'd with And Nurture too will take its toll The wheel must turn, his fall was swift Defeat as well, to stonèd soul
Now pierce her heart, the sword you drove Right through her chest is meant to be Ignore the voice that begs for love Away she'll turn, too blind to see
She tried to save her, fool she was Atop that hill was question posed "Must I be forced to join this cause? My price I paid, my chapter closed"
The answer came, a promise spoke "You turned to light, so I must turn. This price I pay, for balance broke Is now my duty to return.”
And so the kiss must be forgot And so for love a soul turned cold To force the one who’s mortal out To end the battle ‘twas foretold
Within the storm, a mortal weeps Her blade still drips with passion slaked Within her wings, her lover sleeps A princess fallen, ne’er shall wake
There's a light at the end of this tunnel, I fear As I fly from the monster none else can see clear With a heart shining brighter than all of the stars And those eyes that see right to the heart of my scars
For this freedom she's given is all but a lie Now I see that she wants my own heart as her prize Every word that she speaks is a chain binding tight As my soul is encircled by Passion's delight
That is why I must flee from this demon seraphic And desires we share of a nature most sapphic With each lover's caress I lose more of myself To the one whose embrace would persist beyond death
But the storm all around me is fading away And her presence reduces my wings into clay I can only descend and await my demise At the hoof of the one with my heart in her vise
With a smile on her face, and a kiss from her lips I am lost once again, to her grace my soul slips
