For Blood

Close the Demon City gate
And ring the sorrow bell
Sit with me at bedside
As thy brothers under spell

I fear that he shall never wake
And the wind will speak his name
Silence within the desert night
Remember these dark days

For blood we raise
Our fist in the air in dedication
Memory of one
Who sleeps eternally

For blood we sing
In honor of our demon brother
Stay within our hearts
He will not fade away

He travelled on by sunrise
But his body stayed behind
Moving from the mortal world
To the shadows of the night

Silence in the city walls
Until the sun went down
On that night our voices sang
Out a memorial song
