Lullaby

Now hush little baby don't you cry,
Satan's gonna sing you a lullaby,
Fear not as angels fall from the sky,
Fear not as all these humans die.

Now hush little baby don't you cry,
Satan's gonna sing you a lullaby,
Fear not as all these demons rise,
Fear not as darkness fills the skies.

Now hush little baby don't you cry,
Satan's gonna sing you a lullaby,
Fear not child, as my legions fight,
Fear not child the extinguished light.

Now hush little baby don't you cry,
Satan's gonna sing you a lullaby,
Fear not when in my death's echo,
Your family's gone, you must follow.

Now hush little baby don't you cry,
Satan's gonna sing you a lullaby,
It will be over in the flash of an eye,
I guess it was probably too early to die.

Rule In Hell

My last breath had been drawn,
My heart's drums silently fade,
The thread which held my life,
Found itself cut an age ago.

As my life was dwindling,
Free falling into the river,
The River Styx of Hades,
Cleansing the dead souls.

As I fell lightly through the realms,
My naked soul glided into Hades,
Before I touched the torrid river,
I heard a whisper echo in my ear.

A cold, dominating voice did ask,
A question to me that did question,
Everything that was taught to me,
In my mortal life before my demise.

The voice did say "Now you must choose,
Would you rather serve in the realms of heaven,
Or rule in the dark realms of Hades' Hell?"
The voice waited patiently for my answer.

Those I walked with on the Earth,
Held firm the path of righteousness,
The path carved by Olympian lords,
The path which promised true peace.

The voice still waited for my answer,
I thought long, of the life I had lived,
A life devoted to servitude of the gods,
A life devoted to the righteous path.

As my bodyless soul drifts above,
The waters of the mystic River Styx,
I knew the answer my elders would,
Expect from one who walked with them.

Serve in heaven, serve the divine lords,
Linger an eternity as dust under their feet,
After a lifetime of devotion, serve forever?
I thought back the life I lived in their name.

Amidst the dark corners of my memories,
It did dawn upon me, a fact that had been proven,
The prayers I bellowed with my brothers,
Failed our dying sisters, failed the one I love.

Serve in heaven? Serve the lords?
The lords who fed upon our fears,
The lords who see us as their cattle,
They call themselves our shepherd.

No more! Nay! I refuse to sacrifice,
My soul's eternal life in their name,
Fuel their arrogance more than is?
Never! They have enough fools to rule.

I bid the voice that called upon me,
The voice that has stayed my path,
To hear the answer I have chosen,
To hear the path I wish to walk.

"Hear me now, you did ask me to choose,
And I know now which choice to make,
Why must I sentence my eternal soul,
To the shackles of the Olympian Gods?"

"Millions before me may have served,
Millions after me shall choose to serve,
But my soul which has entered Hades,
Wishes to rule in hell, for my eternal life."

The Voice did not speak but it did respond,
My fall which had been halted now resumed,
I fell to the very bottom of the River Styx,
I felt all the emotions of mortality burn.

As the River pulled me through the currents,
I felt all the fear, all the pain, purged away,
I felt my attachment to the realm of mortals,
Dissolved by Styx  and it felt magnificent.

As the River threw me to the banks of Hell,
My soul was cold, but I felt no weakness,
As I found my feet I gazed at the horizon,
I gazed at the Black Sun of the Hellish world.

The Black Sun burned ever so bright,
It dispersed all of the cold from me,
Replaced it with an erupting Rage,
Rage came not alone, it brought allies.

As I was enveloped in the suns mystical rays,
The Rage which boiled my blood also gave me power,
Power in the form of will and determination.
Power which could not be destroyed or surpassed.

As I stand on the banks of Hell,
Fuelled with the power to rule,
Fuelled by the mystic Black Sun,
I know I made the right choice.

Worlds Below

Perhaps I should give my thanks,
To the ones who rule the world,
Not the world we see, but the world,
That lies below, the world of hell.

I called on them, not once nor twice,
Not thrice, but on countless occasions,
It wasn't always this way in the past,
I was a proud devout son of Olympus.

I chanted deep prayers for them,
Long after their ears went deaf,
I'd show them my shocking loyalty,
Long after their eyes turned blind.

In the coldest night of the long winter,
I called upon with what little strength,
The cruel cold had been unable to take,
Again as they always had, they ignored.

I was certain that the end was nigh,
I was certain the insignificant flame,
Which represented my broken life,
Was on the verge of being extinguished.

As my sight was fading,
As my body turned light,
As my spirit was crying,
As my heart was slowing.

I heard an Angel call my name,
But the angel was an unfamiliar,
She wasn't the Angel of Olympus,
She was the Angel of Worlds Below.

Much had been spoken of their power,
Unending might at their grasp eternal,
For anyone who would ever call them,
But all knew, their price was too steep.

The Angel called, I listened to her words,
She promised me, swore upon the blood,
The blood, the only thing sacred down below,
The blood, the only currency Worlds Below.

I thought long and hard, I thought,
Of what price the world below,
Would seek from a son of Olympus?
My soul and mind were devoted.

The Angel spoke again, I listened again,
She spoke of the gift humanity holds,
The wondrous gift of our own free will,
The ability to forsake everything and be free.

I thought again, long and hard,
My life was over, my spirit dead,
My heart pounding its last drums,
My mind was lost to the oblivion.

All my thinking yielded an answer,
I am not the one who is forsaking,
The gods turned their care from me,
Despite my unparalleled devotion.

I took the Angel's hand and asked her,
"Tell me now, all that I must see done,
To command the power of your lords,
To save my own flesh from turning to ash"

The Angel smiled and touched my heart,
Her hand slipped through my cold chest,
Into the tomb in which my cold heart rested,
She touched it and I felt it beat wildly again.

With every beat of my resurrected heart,
My spirit was revived but something was new,
Something was surely different, I felt it again,
As my feet found their strength I felt the power.

The power of the Lords of Worlds Below,
Thrust into my very being, fuelled by it,
At first fear gripped me, but that was gone,
I knew the power of Worlds Below was dark.

But what do these commoners know of life?
They're minds so narrow, so meek, so ordinary,
How could they possibly understand a higher mind?
How could they possibly understand such power?

Nothing But Anger

Curse all you gods that exist,
Curse all you lying demons,
Curse all you damned souls,
Curse you the most provoker.

I saw the last drop of hope,
Deep within your two eyes,
You offered me truest truths,
You took it all away from me.

You gave me the reason,
To walk once I wake up,
To eat a morsel of food,
To drink a drop of water.

I was lost, truly I was lost,
You offered me a true path,
You offered me what I needed,
You tore this soul to bare shreds.

Now I'm lost more than ever,
You lured me in to your web,
You stabbed my heart to bits,
You robbed my mind of wisdom.

But in the darkness I see now,
The darker beings offer me now,
The means to my true vengeance,
I shall have it, any means necessary.

Thank you, you lying demon,
You gave me my greatest gift,
An undying anger that will,
Forever fuel my fury's rage.

The Tunnel

There has been much,
Spoken about the end,
Elders speak of a light,
That heals all wounds.

I had begun my journey,
To the talked about end,
To seek the light's power,
That could save my soul.

"Be warned!" The elders said,
"The tunnel crawls with evil,
There is no saviour till the end,
Either the light, either death."

I accepted the danger,
I travelled the tunnel,
I had fought the dark,
I could feel the light.

The end was in sight,
The light was shining.
I let down my guard,
I let the light take me.

I closed my eyes and waited,
Waited for the light to heal,
To heal these scars and cuts,
To heal this lost soul of mine.

I opened my eyes to a lie,
There was no light there,
Only a dark lonely abyss,
There was no light there.

Rest In Peace

Fare you well brother,
You shall not be missed,
But know this one truth,
You had always loved.

You provided me safe harbour,
In the darkest of perilous nights,
You provided my mind relief,
In the darkest of evil shadows.

You were a part of me,
Our hearts beat as one,
Your eyes have looked,
Through my own eyes.

Fare you well brother of mine,
I hope you shall never return,
Yet part yearns for resurrection,
As you had done several times.

Rose from the dead,
And saved my soul,
Rose from dark hell,
And saved my mind.

Look after me brother,
From the great beyond,
Rise again my brother,
To protect me in the dark.

Dear God

What conspiracy is this?
Where has wisdom fled?
Why do you torture me?
When shall this pain end?

You created me and for that,
I shall be in your debt forever,
You write the pages of my life,
I merely a player in your plans.

When was mercy lost to sadism?
Was there any divine truth there?
Tell me, my lords, you simply must!
How long shall you ignore my voice?

You sent me into one terrible abyss,
I fought my way through the dark,
In your name, I didn't give in and die,
The battle was won, but I was lost.

I thanked you for the power,
Enough to survive the terror,
But tragically it wasn't enough,
To save my weakened spirit.

The abyss may have failed,
To take life from this body,
But the abyss had succeeded,
In the destruction of my heart.

I lingered with a hollow chest,
I survived on mere cold breath,
I sleep with an amputated spirit,
I wake with nothing worth doing.

You sent me an angel,
Who did resurrect me,
Who touched my heart,
Who revived purpose.

But no, you took it away,
You gave me happiness,
But swiftly took it away,
Before I could grasp on it.

You threw me yet again,
Into a darker abyss still,
I feel my heart crumbling,
The pain is far too severe.

I pray to you great lord,
Please, give me my angel,
Provide relief to my soul,
Provide life to this heart.

My Heart Speaks

It must have been a rainy day,
The day you entered the world,
For all the heavens had wept,
The loss of their greatest angel.

I didn't feel anything,
The day we first met,
But today I see myself,
Whispering your name.

I know not when,
I stirred for you,
But I know that,
I am truly yours.

Today I beat in a rhythm,
A rhythm to your name,
The name which holds,
The greatest angel of all.

I'd sooner cease the beat,
Than have you stare at me,
With eyes filled with scorn,
With eyes filled with hatred.

I apologise my angel,
For any pain I caused,
For anger I sparked,
I didn't ever mean to.

I'm not a clairvoyant,
I know not for sure,
But I feel something,
Stirring within you.

I could be wrong,
But maybe I could,
Know hidden truths,
But I could be wrong.

I shall not speak out of turn,
I shall press nothing upon you,
But, fair angel, if I feel the truth,
I shall not stir away, I shall stay.

I will never be too far,
Your words will always,
Find me in the darkness,
Where I shall stay to hear.

Cold Sweat

We peacefully lay,
Holding each other,
Closer than possible,
Tighter than ever.

We peacefully lay there,
On the soft floating cloud,
Over the greenest pastures,
Below the deep blue skies.

I wish that this moment,
Would last an eternity,
For even the gods know,
I have never been happier.

Not a soul for a million miles,
This world is yours and mine,
No dark souls can destroy it,
Nothing shall ever cause pain.

Suddenly the sun vanished,
The pastures had blackened,
The skies had all darkened,
I looked in your direction.

You weren't there in my arms,
The cloud had disappeared,
I hurtled towards the ground,
I kept looking for you, no avail.

Just as my face hit the hard dirt,
I rose in my own bed in terror,
Sweat covered every bit of me,
But every drop froze my being.

As I stare at the night's sky,
Praying that you are as well,
I hope that sometime soon,
I find my way to your arms.

Old Voice

There was a point in my life,
Where my heart beat for you,
Your glorious eyes had mine,
Your wondrous soul had me.

You had always been,
A part of my corners,
You had always lit up,
That empty darkness.

But as a lonely heart beats,
A long forgotten voice yells,
Screaming your sacred name,
Deafening every other sound.

The voice still calls for you,
Yearning to see you again,
Wishing to feel at long last,
The immense love I have.

As I close my two eyes,
And travel to far lands,
Deep in my conscience,
Deep into those dreams.

I see all those memories,
Which had never happened,
The voice does call for you,
My heart still beats for you.

Strength In The Darkness

Look in the distance,
Look deep in the dark,
Look in the shadows,
You'll see an old man.

They say those who see him,
Are ones chosen to experience,
The ecstasy of the darkness,
He is the embodiment of dark.

The darkness in his aura,
Emits an unusual calm,
I know as I have felt it,
Pure and simply ecstasy.

That old man is my friend,
Always there for my mind,
Easing the pain as I looked,
Into his two angry red eyes.

He is the one who can,
Teach all those suffering,
From a mutilated heart,
Peace in the darkness.

I know as I have been there,
The darkness enveloped me,
Took every bit of my being,
And removed all the pain.

As I comfortably lay,
In that which is dark,
I can feel pain no more,
Only this blissful glow.

Unknown

My life was overturned,
My heart and my mind,
Was taken by your magic,
I fell for your perfection.
 
Your eyes, drops of heaven,
Glistening an amazing light,
In your eyes I have only seen,
A beautiful, peaceful world.
 
Your voice, song of the angels,
No harp in heaven could be,
More enchanting than yours,
Your words charmed my soul.
 
Your face, envy of Aphrodite,
Always carried that mystique,
The purest magical spell ever,
My heart couldn't help but fall.
 
Your heart, purer than god himself,
Always bore the reason for my smile,
There's never been a single moment,
Where you did not bring me peace.
 
Now as I continue to fall,
Deep in this love for you,
A strange voice whispers,
And shakes my reserve.
 
The strange voice bore a question,
"As you fall, so deep in her charm,
As she occupies the darkest corners,
In your mind, stop and ask yourself."
 
"Has she fallen for you as well?
Does her heart beat as yours?
Does she see the same world?
Does she feel anything for you?"
 
The question stuck in my mind,
An answer nowhere to be found,
I know not, if you feel the same,
I know not, why I fight the dark.
 
The question occupies my mind,
An answer from you is absent,
Do you see the world that I see?
Do you love me as I love you?

For You

In life all must choose,
The path of their lives,
To walk upon the light,
Or walk upon the dark.

Most chose the light,
But no, I took the dark,
I haven't merely walked,
I championed the dark.

I enjoyed every moment,
Far away from the light,
Enjoyed all the pleasures,
Of a corrupted man's mind.

But something has stirred,
I felt it before but ignored,
But now it is too powerful,
It stirs so strong for you.

It doesn't please you,
This path I tread upon,
It doesn't please you,
The sins I committed.

You need not tell me,
I know what I must do,
The dark shall be tread,
Never again by my feet.

I shall fight the shadows,
I shall resist the demons,
I shall find my true path,
To the light, to your arms.

I pray that once I've won the war,
Once I've set my feet upon light,
You know how much I love you,
And pray you love me as well.

I pray to all the gods,
For strength to win,
That your heart stirs,
As mine does for you.

Give Me A Sign

As I sit besides you,
I hear a silent sound,
I close my eyes to hear,
Hear that sound better.

My heart is shouting,
His words for my ears,
"Cease this, I can't stop,
Stop holding me back."

"I know what my job is,
To simply beat so you live,
But we both know one thing,
That you live to see her again."

"I know I want to be hers,
I know it well that I am hers,
The tragedy is that she refused,
She refused to accept both of us."

I responded to my heart,
"Do not fight me right now,
Not when I'm so close to her,
Take me in the night I care not."

"Trust me old friend,
I wish not to hold you,
I wish to see you happy,
Blissful in her tender hands."

"I pray for one sign,
Which would prove,
That we could happen,
I just need that sign."

"Believe in me old friend,
Once I read that one sign,
Our lips will kiss that day,
And you shall be truly happy."

The Smile

I crossed the oceans,
I survived the desert,
It has been a tough,
And ruthless eight days.
 
The struggle shall not end,
It is a life fighting to live,
The journey must not end,
Unless it is an eternal rest.
 
But Fear reared its head,
And it dawned upon me,
"Eight days left me weak,
How would life survive?"
 
In quest of an answer,
I stumbled onto you,
I saw you truly happy,
Wearing a true smile.
 
I fixed my glaze and froze,
My eyes fixed upon you,
Admiring a true angel,
Bearing a wondrous smile.
 
I do love her more than anything,
I was well enchanted by her beauty,
I was well dazzled by her charm,
I was now stunned by her smile.
 
In that moment, I knew,
How I could survive all,
Her stunning smile showed,
The reason why its all worth it.
 
The moment couldn't be,
More than a few seconds,
But in those few seconds,
I fell in love all over again.

Angel's Tribute

I don't know how to put it,
I know what this feels like,
I just haven't the slightest,
Idea as to how it happened.

I was decimated by demons,
Cursed by the dark witches,
Ignored by all of the gods,
Condemned to life of misery.

I was certain that nothing,
Could save my dying spirit,
But my cries were heard,
In the realms of the angels.

I didn't see it coming at all,
An angel stepped into my life,
Used her pure powers to free,
My soul from the hellish flames.

As my wounds healed,
I saw she wanted leave,
I knew why, her job done,
Soul saved, spirit yet alive.

Stay awhile you beautiful lass,
My heart is yours, stay awhile,
You saved me, you must see me,
With your own amazing eyes.

Stay awhile my lady, stay,
Hear these words of mine,
For I now know the meaning,
My heart is yours, it is clear.

My heart is yours, my love,
You now occupy my mind,
Give me a chance, my angel,
Let me make your heart mine.

Masked No More

I must hide in the shadows,
My true face can't be seen,
The world isn't ready for it,
They'll never understand.

The evils overshadow all,
I concede I was with them,
But no more shall I suffer,
And wear a smiling mask.

The mask was fixed on me,
Held me tighter than flesh,
I grew tired of removing it,
It was simply impossible.

Your words held a power,
No mystical enchantment,
Nor a supernatural spell,
But the power of purity.

I felt my mask loosen,
You lightly pulled it off,
Sent it to burn in hell,
And saw my true face.

You're the only one,
Who has seen me,
Without my mask,
What happens now?

You're the only one who knows,
The person who stands before you,
Tell me you gentle soul, is it a heart?
A heart of the one who can love you?

Remember this you must,
You have seen my soul,
And you know it well,
My soul and heart are yours.

I'm Yours

I don't know how to ask,
For you to be with me,
Just a little while longer,
Not too long, just a bit.

I know its only been an hour,
Since you had to leave me,
But I can't stop missing you,
I simply must see you again.

The night is still young,
Could you meet me now?
I know I met you already,
But I need to see you now.

I won't attempt any mischief,
All I want is to be next to you,
Because once you leave me,
I feel any emptiness in my soul.

The emptiness doesn't fade,
It grows with each second,
And I have to see you again,
To plug the hole and breathe.

You may see it as a moment,
Where you were with me,
I see it as one moment less,
That I was away from you.

The Second Coming

Nine years ago I was cursed,
Not by demons not a witch,
But by a conquering lass,
Who took my mind and heart.

The torment never ceased,
The pain had never lessened,
A night's sleep was a luxury,
Peace of mind was a myth.

The curse was eventually lifted,
By a pure soul I stumbled upon,
I never thought it was possible,
But she sent the curse to the past.

Now as I breathe a peaceful breath,
Fear grips my heart and my mind,
If one curse is laid by a dark soul,
Couldn't it be lifted by a darker one?

Perhaps this new found serenity,
Is just a cover for a greater evil,
An evil which would end me,
As the previous one failed to do.

Today as I wake after a restless night,
I see it clearly now, she isn't a saviour,
She offered my heart its resurrection,
And took it away before I could grasp

Miss You So

I woke up to a dreaded feeling,
A cold sweat and numb feet,
A lacking of an energetic beat,
An absence of my soul's energy.

I looked everywhere I could,
Everywhere resembled you,
But you weren't anywhere,
How I wish I'd see you again.

I miss our endless drives,
I miss your peaceful smile,
I miss holding you close to me,
In solemn embrace loving you.

Now as I wake to another cold day,
A soul's wish escapes to the universe,
Please let me hold you close again,
Please grant me strength to never let go.

Oath

You must tell me what you are,
The daughter of the heavens,
Or the princess of all angels,
I know you have to be one.

I saw your true form,
I saw a beautiful soul,
I saw the purest heart,
I saw the angel's eyes.

I can only imagine the day,
The suns rays first touched,
That beautiful perfect face,
Creating fear in Olympians.

Aphrodite ran to the windows,
Looking at you with ugly envy,
She howled in anger at the sun,
The sun which revealed to me.

The mystical spirit which did bear,
Untold beauty, unassailable purity,
I shall thank the gods that I saw it,
I swear to the universe, you shall not cry.

Angel

I remember how my life was,
A weight always crushing me,
Hiding under every shadow,
Fearing every coming second.

The Heart felt more like a burden,
The power had all but faded away,
My Mind knew not what it must do,
Simply governing me aimlessly.

Enter the Angel, a wondrous lass,
Beauty grand enough to stir envy,
In every heart even the goddesses,
Fit to be the princess of heaven.

Her soul was so spotless, so pure,
Devout monks seemed corrupt,
Her eyes pierced into my soul,
As if it were heaven's looking glass.

Her hand simply touched mine,
And I felt my chest grow warm,
My Heart who was simply a burden,
Was beating with new vigour.

I'll never forget her sweet embrace,
Pulling me into her mystical aura,
Rejuvenating every bit of my mind,
Lifted that crushing weight off me.

She pulled me out of the shadows,
That prevented me from my peace,
She eliminated every fear of mine,
I gave her all I had, my beating heart.

The New Year

There isn't much to say,
The year edges to the end,
The new year beckons,
What could be different?

Shall I in the new year,
Have you at long last?
As my suffering stretches,
To its tenth year of tears.

I pray to have you in my arms,
Every day and every night,
How shall a new year change,
Change all the tears I have cried?

New year's eve changes to new years,
By the one thing that always happens,
It all changes with a simple tomorrow,
Maybe tomorrow I'll see your eyes?

Maybe tomorrow I would see you,
Maybe tomorrow, hear your voice,
Maybe tomorrow, my tears will dry,
Maybe tomorrow, my pain will die.

Serenity Now

I just can't remember,
The last time I smiled,
A true smile of my heart,
Not the masks I wear.

The angel of nine years,
Never gave me a chance,
Pushed me into a corner,
Thought she'd claim me.

But little does she know,
I may be in the corners,
But invisible in the dark,
I silently smile to myself.

I don't know what caused this,
I'm not sure if I want to know,
One thing however is clear to me,
No one can strike me down tonight.

I sit in the darkest corners,
A true smile from my heart,
Challenging all the elements,
To try and strike me down.
