Tyrants And Wraiths Ballads of death In killing fields A new age of fear A life of kings Forgotten ones Concealed in shadows The piercing wails Of human flesh Wraiths ...suspended time and fate Fate ...comes knocking at the door Wraiths ...foretell the tyrant's tale Wraiths ...will sing their glorious songs Carved for eternity A name in gold Seek immortality In every breath Yet justice prevails And in the throes of death Vengeance is vile Open the gates of hell Wraiths ...standing the test of time Time ...will only wait so long Wraiths ...foretell the tyrant's fate Wraiths ...returned to hallowed ground Columns of rising smoke Written in wreaths of lies In unmarked tombs of pain Silence screams Unspoken words of valour Grow louder through the years Though falling on deaf ears Are carried by the winds Relics of sin Steal the night away Lurking in sleep Phantom daffodils Castles of sand in changing tides Fall to the scorn of accusing waves One by one refusing pleas Digress triumphantly into the seas As tyrants slowly drown in sacrificial waters Awaiting wraiths of fabled lore find their peace Fall back into the mists of fading endless battles Remembrance following their stoic, solid stride Wraiths ...standing the test of time Wraiths ...recall the tyrant's fate Wraiths ...returned to hallowed ground Wraiths ...sing their glory Ballads of death In killing fields A new age of fear 2. Innocent Sin Phantom crows brave the skies Fallen squires branding the cross In the wake of rebellion Lucifer's morning star By the light of the ages the damage is done Burying the laughter the bright light of darkness is undone In the blink of an era blinding the sun Innocence doused in sin Fallen squires branding the cross In the arms of affection ravishing virginal pyres Repenting to mutes sharpen fiery tongues Reeking of roses the foul air of piety abound In a moment of strength sanctity downed Drinking the wine Tasting the flesh Solemn demons Fallen angels Crowned desire and chaos, preaching peace Crowned desire and chaos, repenting honor Crowned desire and chaos, relentless savior Crowned desire and chaos, drowning in blood Seeking paths to eternal bliss Amongst thieves of eternal youth Gasping fiends steal the dying breath The morbid gaze of still life speaks no lies Phantom crows brave the skies Fallen squires branding the cross Innocence doused in sin Fallen squires Phantom crows brave the skies Fallen squires branding the cross In the wake of rebellion Lucifer's morning star 3.
