Sadness fills his lonely heart,
As they kiss and drift apart,
Nothing left where once was love,
Lost within the stars above,

Madness fills his fragile mind,
As his dreams are left behind,
Nothing left of who he was,
Shadows follow all he does,

Gladness fills his weary soul,
As he gives up all control,
Nothing left to keep him here,
Dark tides wash away his fear.

Cleared of truth and history,
By my insecurity,
Left here with no heart to show,
Zoomed out from all that I know,

Drained of hope and energy,
By their animosity,
Left here with no path to see,
Groomed for what I cannot be,

Scared of life and destiny,
By my own humanity,
Left here with no love to give,
Doomed to die before I live.

Kneeling on this broken soil,
Feeling blood begin to boil,
All their screams surround my bed,
From this sacred field of red,

Standing on the edge of time,
Staring at what once was mine,
All their faces crowd my head,
Across this ancient field of red,

Passing through this land of pain,
Drenched by cold and heavy rain,
All their hearts have long been bled,
Here upon this field of red.

Take me from this place I know,
Take me from the grip of pain,
Take me from this world of hate,
Take me back from hell’s domain,

Take me from this place I grieve,
Take me from the wrong I’ve done,
Take me from this land of shame,
Take me back where this begun,

Take me from this place I fear,
Take me from the path I roam,
Take me from this world of doubt,
Take me back to see my home.

Snow and ice upon the ground,
Festive songs the only sound,
Signs of magic all around,
Christmas waiting to be found.

Stars are twinkling in the sky,
Laughter helps us all to fly,
Each one’s spirit soaring high,
Christmas lives for you and I.

Decorations shining bright,
Presents piled up out of sight,
Everything is good and right,
Christmas comes to us this night.

Five turrets guard my outer wall,
Defining that which makes me whole,
Illusion, Love, Faith, Truth, and Self,
The guardians that guide my soul,

An open palm to shield and wave,
Presenting me to foe and friend,
A hand of shadows from the void,
That speaks these verses that I send,

The pentagram encased within,
My mark of anonymity,
The emblem of my chosen name,
A symbol of my destiny.
