Two Ravens

As I was walking all alone
I heard two ravens having a moan
And one to the other did say
"Where shall we go and dine today?"
"Out behind that fallen dyke
There lies the body of a murdered knight
And nobody knows he lies there
Save his hawk, his hound, his lady fair"
Two ravens
Two ravens
"His hound has to the hunting gone
His hawk to bring the fowl home
His lady's laying with his mate
So his corpse is now our dinner plate"
Two ravens
Two ravens
"So you sit on his white breast bone
And I'll peck out his two blue eyes
And with a lock of his golden hair
We'll mend our nest when it grows bare"
Two ravens
Two ravens
"And many people will call him on home
But none will know where he has gone
And through his bones when they are bare
The wind will blow forever there"
Two ravens
Two ravens

Barghest

Meet me at the crossroads
You will find me there alone
Time has passed both of us by
And this is where I now roam
Black and evil monster
Eyes of fire and flame
Demon dog bound to this place
This is what I became
I am
Barghest
And I
Won't rest
See me at your crossing
When you lay under that stone
Many years have gone and passed
Death's come to take you home
You raised me since I was a pup
And I've missed you since I left
I have waited here for 13 years
Now we meet again in death
I am
Barghest
And I
Won't rest
I have waited for you
Just to see you again
But now it's your turn to leave
Yet the feeling's all the same
And then you pass away
And I have to stay
This is truly our end
Goodbye my oldest friend
I miss you...
I miss you...
I am
Barghest
And I
Won't rest
I am
Barghest
I am your
Barghest
I was your
Barghest

Ice and Fire

Bring me the steel
And bring me the fire
Annoint the blade
Raise the heat higher
Procession of rats
Halos of gnats
Goat heads, angel wings
Struggling mass of filthy things
Unending funeral
Day in and day out
Torment eternal
Pounded by the blows of doubt
The suffering is hidden
Eyes won't see the burning
An icy realm forbidden
The fires of Hell are churning
Ice and fire
Frozen hail, evil liar
Ascend the stairs to the stars
Freeze to death upon the barbs
Ice and fire
Burning rain, earthly desire
Descend the steps into the pain
Disintegrate within the flames
Ice and fire
Entombed in darkness
This is your prison
Slow execution
The axe is risen
Snakes with two heads
Twisting limbs of red
Satanic regions
Unholy allegiance
Unending funeral
Day in and day out
Torment eternal
Pounded by the blows of doubt
The suffering's hidden
Eyes won't see the burning
An icy realm forbidden
The fires of Hell are churning
Ice and fire
Frozen hail, evil liar
Ascend the stairs to the stars
Freeze to death on the barbs
Ice and fire
Burning rain, earthly desire
Descend the steps into the pain
Disintegrate within the flames
Ice and fire

Father

It was the darkest day
When the light left and all was grey
The dawning of the rust in gold
I was only six years old
The beginning of a cold legacy
Crowned in pain, mantled by misery
The prince remained here enthroned
As the king left him all alone
Sorrow
My father left me
My father left me
My father left me
My father left me
And throughout those early years
Trying to rule a kingdom of rusty tears
The king drifted in and out transformed
Riding on the winds of the whitest storm
Time would pass the prince in woe
A quarter of a century or so
The king had completely disappeared
Within a snow white cocaine blizzard
Sorrow
My father left me
My father left me
My father left me
My father left me
And never came back
I am the god of wolves and death
Red on white is all that's left
Treading on this bloody snow
They fear me, I'm wendigo
Manitou, lord of the trees
The highest mountains are part of me
The blues and whites of the snows
My home where the wild grapes grow
Supernova
A church falling as cinders
A storm of snow and ash
This kingdom fading away
This legacy fading fast
An end to this tired land
The sun is in your eyes
The end of this doomed bloodline
The sun brings your demise
I am the sea wolf of the deep
The blackest blues where the great ships sleep
A hellish mouth within this ocean
Swallowing all as the icy depths now open
I am the wraith, walker of the graves
Self-infliction to free the slaves
Suicide frees the shackled host
And I now stride the path of ghosts
Supernova
A church falling as cinders
A storm of snow and ash
This kingdom fading away
This legacy fading fast
An end to this tired land
The son is in your eyes
The end of this doomed bloodline
The son brings your demise
