It's the sound of silence
Darkness falling gentle rain
In the land of a dragon's birth
A mermaid's love easing the pain
It's the sound of silence
The song of a rich black sky
The lyrics of tar
The twinkle in a fierce celestial eye

It's a spirit that craves
The shadows
The swirling twilight tinged clouds
The world he knows 
Best 
Where the black ghosts
Pursue blood and knowledge
With unerring, uncommon zest

The earliest claw carved stones 
The mystical symbols 
Nirvana for well-traveled bones
Darkness swirling
Shaded by the most vestal stream
Two old souls bonded
By
One plus one potent and undiluted gene
He waits for a reunion
A millennia and heartbeat
From his natural skin and sun
He awaits a carefully crafted destiny
Ancient blood rising anew
In the veins of a sapling firedrake tree

It's a woolgathering they will fight for
For 
Beneath
The picture of his pretty mermaid still
Beneath the dragon's windowsill
Lies a hunger 
For
The hunt, the primal thrill
A malefic familial yearning
To kill and kill and kill
Beneath the dreary human complex
Runs deep a lepidote fever 
Burning hot, hotter than the pull for sex

At the end of the foretold day
The final tune
Redemption 
Won't arrive a second too soon
Not before the resurrected paladins
Purge the dirty yellow moon
And from the ashes of their demise
The next great Horus
Will arise
Powerful beyond the ordinary
Carrying more of the coveted wine
Than any of its Draca progeny

Up and down the aged steps
The shadow warriors bow 
Homage to their coal-hearted liege
As his story closes now
As the ancient Aiien order
Welcomes back
The rightful owner

Gentle falls the achromatic dew 
Twilight tinged clouds swirling 
On the village Bruw
She's in his arms
He's still mesmerized
By her eternal Merish charms

It's the sounds of silence
The song of a rich black sky
The lyrics of tar
The twinkle in a fierce celestial eye
