Don’t walk into the shadows, for they are too deep. You might slip through the floor and into the sea Where the Golden King now lies, Watching the end go on by.
As around us spun the star-filled void, I spoke to a man whose own fate he avoids By standing outside of the Garden’s gate And leaving us all to our ill-bound fate.
Together we watched the world that existed below Slowly turn to the end we all know That dwells deep within the sun, An all-consuming fire that no ship can outrun.
Our souls are tied to the light of the moon, Because the sun swallowed the world too soon, And left the oceans baked red And burnt everything green to black and dead.
On top of the sea in that star-filled void, The King watched as humanity was surely destroyed. Inch by inch, they fought to not give To the bubbling sun that ate all of its terrestrial kin.
With a cruel, unholy smile He turned to me after a long while, And asked if this death was truly my fate Or if I wanted his power to tear down God’s Gate.
On top of the world and at the end of it all, I met a golden King who was the creation of Gods and the heir to their fall. Neither of us could help it when I took his hand And, with what was left of the world, made our last stand.
