Blood of the Morning Star

Lands drift apart and oceans grow Souls like me only live to see the glow Lights through the mist and Spark through the waves Task ain't done 'til a new ground we gaze Hope is the last thing to keep a man sane When all else seems so vain As the darkness falls And the last bell tolls From the unseen shoreline Route unknown Right now, alone I atone The longest of the nights prevail Trust in the dawn never fail The morning star will rise again With bloody shade of red Drunken tales in the tavern again Ears like mine tend to hear them sayin' There's untold fortune and Paradise there Where no man went and No-one ever dare Greed is the last thing to keep one alive When all else seems to abide As the darkness falls And the last bell tolls From the unseen shoreline Route unknown Right now, alone I atone The longest of the nights prevail Trust in the dawn never fail The morning star will rise again With bloody shade of red Why, why did I let myself Entwine and sink in mindless pride? Lie, lie, only lie after lie It's too late to take my side anymore Live to see only death as the course of life It's enough to kill the flame in me These old wives' tales In the corner of the inn Should leave my dreams alone Souls sacrificed on this journey of lies Paint morning star red for me History books tell the stories in our days Justice is done but a written word remains Reader's Digest and Discovery Have no idea what it's like to be me Some things best to be left alone As the morning star has shown As the darkness falls And the last bell tolls From the unseen shoreline Route unknown Right now, alone I atone The longest of the nights prevail Trust in the dawn never fail The morning star will rise again With bloody shade of red
