The King's Curse Lyrics

Many Moons, and time has past
Forgotten ruins, since this tale's told last
Nature's claimed those grounds above
But Beneath our allegiance it Stirs
It's Grown

All of those, the many who've scribed
Our Kin, Our Pride
His patience prevails, dormant he's lied
But now with my call, he will rise, Janos will rise?

I pass this to sons who serve
Gathered by our fire's light
To pay for the pact of blood, and stand by his bidding, unite
Just like before
Reaping the spoils, protecting our lines
A pound of flesh, ingrained, but also a right
An honor, A curse,
But for both sides, without it, averse
And Blood will have to be spilt
A Dark lords survival, we'll fight
In silence, entombed, in it's chambers
It's oozed from it's urn
From arched blackened crypts, my message was sent
A parasite's symbiotic return...

Festering mass of this blackness
It's thoughts have never left my mind
But now since it's crept from it's vessel of ash
Pacing new prisons, It's frustrations are mine

What it wants is to join the first of it's kind
Leaving Us to be carried through a passage in time
We must carry it, And it's calling

It knows not of the strength it will regain
That is not ours to care
But to give just a piece of each one
It's only chance to repair
Until it's morphed into something
To be passed on to the hands we'll not see
That, commands obedience
In this purpose we'll bleed

Traverse
The Source and then beyond
Exchange it's dark thoughts past
What befalls us matters not
For what is handed off will outlast
To take this journey, by this pact born here
From bloodtied essence of what we are to it
We must Adhere

Enslaved...
But only to the will to survive
This has always been it's strength
Resonate in minds this darkness must thrive
The realm of the living, and not where it's been kept
In a different form, It's wisdom, from death
And the path crossed over to here again
To mold an existence
Visualized, then willed to be

To the gate, Through the divide, Continuum
