Once upon a legend On a day that time forgot I felt my heart cease beating And I knew the world had stopped No wind stirred in the treetops No more sweet flowers growing No waves upon the oceans The rivers were not flowing The moon lost in the heavens No place for her to go Forever left in darkness No light for the world below Dawn is never coming here No new day is being born The sun will not be rising Night will not turn into morn Caught in a painful silence All earthly life is stilled The source of this disaster Is a promise unfulfilled The promise that you made me The cruel game you played The dark truth echoes bleakly In the heart that you betrayed

The Dark Truth
Once upon a legend On a day that time forgot I felt my heart cease beating And I knew the world had stopped No wind stirred in the treetops No more sweet flowers growing No waves upon the oceans The rivers were not flowing The moon lost in the heavens No place for her to go Forever left in darkness No light for the world below Dawn is never coming here No new day is being born The sun will not be rising Night will not turn into morn Caught in a painful silence All earthly life is stilled The source of this disaster Is a promise unfulfilled The promise that you made me The cruel game you played The dark truth echoes bleakly In the heart that you betrayed
