A Dragon Tale

Dragon in the mist
Caught out in a war
I didn't know I was fighting
They got first blood
Plundered the castle
And left me for dead
Stranded beneath those burning acidic skies
The rage still smoldering in wild red eyes
We escaped racing deep and wide
Down but not out
Remembering those who suffered and died

Snared in a web
The cold malicious treachery of friends and family
Hope was setting a sun
Dragon forlorn
Beneath a withering tree
As the enemy cheered and old bells tolled
Tolling for a derailed destiny
But some rivers run bottomless deep
The wolf chasing the sheep
A bolt of light in the dark
Illuminating hazardous ground
My soul reached out
And I felt an ancient sound
Dragon reborn
The hunt was on

Gathered the best
The finest from Bruw inside and outside the shade
Slayers with a one-track mind
A rhythm of death
On the executioner's unforgiving rhyme
They're waiting for you I heard
On a far away planet
The shifty fugitives newly minted Zoo
Third from the sun
Dusted green and unearthly blue
They're waiting for you
The envy-riddled pretenders
In their hasty blend of creature to men
Buffed my horns
And we dove right into this Lions den

Dragon alone
Caught up in a war
I didn't know I was fighting
The game continues
Rushing to an inevitable end
Stronger than ever
Things have changed
Deceit exposed
Fates doused and rearranged
Entrusted with the greatest legacy
The line is long, long
Murderers and thieves colluding to rob me
Dragon alone
I'm a warrior with no fear
The odds are irrelevant
I simply do not care
We will fight
We will kill and kill and kill
Until none of them is left
Not a goddamn polluted fish or snake anywhere

The pride of great hunters past
Their knowledge and wisdom
Their skills
Their nightmares and prophetic dreams
Dragon kissed
And gifted coveted genes
A phoenix in flight
I'll outlast all of their cowardly schemes
Divide and conquer
Not a chance soldier
Surrender?
Not a fucking chance
There can only be a single Lord of this chaotic dance

Dragon on the verge
Caught out in a war I didn't know I was in
It ends here
In unprecedented cosmic carnage
I want it all now
Vengeance
Redemption
Absolute destruction
Extinction
Coronation
I will have it all
Heaven
Hell
Between and beyond
Dragon on the verge
Let the universal gatekeeper
My beloved Engel place the KEY
In her Daimon's bloodstained left hand
That is my destiny
Mine alone
My ancient ancestors great legacy

I want it all
And I want you all...
Fucking
Dead

Carve that in yellow stone
MF
I am
The One

Mad Blak Dragon alone


My flagship is in your space
Tick tock
Do you know how many clicks are left in the clock?
Tick
Tick tock
