Child of the Darkened Shadows

Child of the Darkened Shadows

I climb the trees as my heart appears to fly. I see my home as the darkness fills the sky. I see the armies of the east come crashing in. The rivers red begin to fill the dying din.

And I watch the endless skies, as the wind crashes down on me. And the war comes down to my heart.

Child of the Darkened Shadows, Dragon Lord of a Fading Paradise, Into the reach, into the storm, into the rise, a gallant form. Weaving the dreams that few realize. Taking wing to uncharted skies.

I see the still forms upon the gilded ground. A chill arises from a fatal sound. I see all I know fading from my youthful sight. Fading claws of old ascend me to flight.

And I watch the endless skies, as the wind crashes down on me. And the war is far, far away...

Child of the Darkened Shadows, Dragon Lord of a Fading Paradise, Into the reach, into the storm, into the rise, a gallant form. Weaving the dreams that few realize. Taking wing to uncharted skies.

Taking hold, dragon claw, breath of fire, word of law. Ancient wisdom ascends me on high. Darkened rifts, island home, arcana dark, all alone, As I see my dragons fade all away. Ancient heart, mighty song, master mage, gone too long, My mentor shielded me from the fray.

And I watch the endless skies, as the wind crashes down on me. Home is a desolate place to remain.

A Dream upon the new horizon A shining city within my dreams, A Dire Song, A Nightmare Rise, An Entranced Dream with eclipsed skies A surge tears my broken dream apart. A shadow clenches a hold onto my heart.

Child of the Darkened Shadows, Dragon Lord of a Fading Paradise, Into the reach, into the storm, into the rise, a gallant form. Weaving the dreams that few realize. Taking wing to uncharted skies.
