Cold Star

The moment has come
I hold in my hand unconquerable will
It fell from the sky
My cryptic ally, unbreakable

Everything changed as radiant death
Flowed from my arm
Flee or be slain, the jackals lie dead
The sword, now fed is singing

It sings of a world of danger and death and madness

I leave behind the city
Head north into the night
I’ll hunt him down and kill him
That devil-haunted man

Terminus is silent
It hangs at my side
My cold star, my bright blade
Now part of my plan

In just three nights he’ll kill her
My lover and my joy
A sacrifice to madness, immortal hate
I’d nearly forgotten what I was looking for
But Terminus reminds me there’s no time to wait

Words to the wise
Awake and arise
Or forever fall, forever fall

Sometimes we make the monster
Sometimes it makes itself
The things I see around me now
I know were not from me

Rising up in many forms
Some fair and some most foul
I’ll have to deal with each of them
To set my lover free

Words to the wise
Awake and arise
Or forever fall, forever fall, forever fall

If I fail then it happens
He wins and all is lost
Hope, my sword and my weapon
Must die if that’s the cost

Forest dark and it’s haunted
With what we cannot know
Must fight through to the river
I’m tired, but on I go

Two days left then he kills her
Time isn’t on my side
Sorcery and dark magic
From which I cannot hide

How can we who seek justice prevail
For there is none in this world
And I’m guilty as sin, like everyone
