Benighted Blade

Emberal procession, the veil of heaven is torn Where the whispering flame is born A knife made undying Thirsts for the blood of the earth A perilous edge Drinker of the souls of men Across a darkened outland Wretched baron of shade Bearing the lamp that lights the hidden path Keeper of benighted blade Timeless wanderer Under the watching shadow of ancient trees At the mouth of labyrinth He bides upon a bended knee Temple at eventide Shrouded in the fog Gloaming dialogue exchange Long dead man and shifting god Lifted up in a cloak of stars Unhooded, light is borne in darkness Reveal, tempered lunar steel A sword to eat the sun Emberal procession, the veil of heaven is torn Where the whispering flame is born A knife made undying Thirsts for the blood of the earth A perilous edge Drinker of the souls of men Relentless tide of undeath Power ripples through the depths Pathways move of their own accord In their wake, undying breath Elusive paradise Domain of the black sultan A sword with a soul The key to the final gate --- Benighted Blade - Wormwitch
