My body a float, my ships ablaze
drifting into the last whisps of haze.
I stare into the sun
and feel it glare right past me.
Wind whips my face, hair adrift in mirk
I think back to when that devious smirk
sent me away
and doomed all of my men...
The sand gripped me back, on the beach of my birth
twas the first step I took, into the future, inevitable dearth.
Doomed from the start
but far too blind to see
There on her pedestal, she once was my queen
this far from the shore, her gaze has no chains on me.
twas the hero of yore
absent my name, in the lore
The villain she made me, the destroyer of homes
wasting innocent people, a case of Fomes
has tainted my heart
and wilted me from the inside
Irreparable the damage of that Asp in the sand
holding me close, promising her hand
and cast me away
cast me away
cast me away
Sickly and venom-ridden, my soul and my mind
dreams of the woman who I must soon chide
I float in the mirk
Apollo wont watch me now
I pray to a god, in hopes I catch ear
and am given a chance to return from here
return from here
hand wrapped around spear
cast away away from home
into parts unknown
dying cold in the waters
most stranger to me
most stranger to me
most stranger...
Dear gods hear my plee
give me one last chance
to exact my revenge
and pay my way home
down straight into hell
with her head in my hands
*Shallow eye-light guiding my way
A sequel to "Asp"
I hope y'all like it
