lyrics

Beside the pale lake
A sickle shines by light
A cloud moves across the moon
Writing on the wall
What is here is dark
In ages past foretold
A call to those that move between
The dead and living world

The spectre and the king
The omen and the ring
The fractal beginning
Of a tale of revenge

Odin the possessed
Lord of fury and Song
Thanatos and Charon
Daemon and Ferryman
Mors, child of night
Brother of sleep
Lord of the butterfly
And lord of the sword

Rising from a tidal pool
Of cloud and purple mist
A gateway to a realm that is
Forbidden to mortal men
A tear in the fabric of the world
Through which they enter
Waiting, smiling
A life lived close to death

The spectre and the king
The omen and the ring
The fractal beginning
Of a tale of revenge

Orcus, punisher
Of broken oaths
Horkus, the curse
Of the false promise
Dis, father
Of the wealth of the earth
The watchers
Those who are awake

Forbidden, forsaken, children of dread
Life was given to you in our stead
And justice shall call to those who claim
To take life away, even our kin
A wakening, a haunting, a flutter of wings
The summer, the winter, the coming of spring
Ages pass in timeless fear
Desolation angels walking near

Odin the possessed
Lord of fury and Song
Thanatos and Charon
Daemon and Ferryman
Mors, child of night
Brother of sleep
Lord of the butterfly
And lord of the sword
Orcus, punisher
Of broken oaths
Horkus, the curse
Of the false promise
Dis, father
Of the wealth of the earth
The watchers
Those who are awake
