Progeny of a silver sunset

Destiny of light and grace

Holy oath's crushing hammer

Set forth in passion's wake

All will see a scourge awaken

Vicious poison testing the faith of a

Malsaken wretch, doomed to rise

All will fall to clandestine lies

Family's tender refuge

Loving mother's warm embrace

Tragedy's cold constriction

Cracked terrace silver grave

Memories of joy are taken

Lonely walls give frigid embrace

To a boy left alone

No tears to cry

This child's time is now set to rise

Traveling to a far ancient land

My sullen hatred heeds to no man

My quest for knowledge blocks out the light

As autumn fades to a cold winter's night

No scourge may take my hand

A learned blade heeds my command

Faith in science has made a godless man

A lord of death, I seek life from these depths

I swear I'll dive to bring her back

Before I leap I look to the past

No pleas, no friends, no hope

Only death, my one true home

It's in my hands descend into chasms

It's in my brain descend into madness

It's in my soul as I'm cleaving flesh

Unholy mind creates unholy breath

I create life

I defy death

Awaken the soul

I create life

And sew this flesh to make it whole

Cleave and mend

Sinew and bone joined again

Morals dismissed

To bring a life back

Back from the pit

Sorcery! Alchemy!

Defying god to bring the dead to life

Sympathy, for what could not be

Defying god to bring the dead to life

Failure's demise

Keys to life before my eyes

Screaming blasphemies as I uncover mysteries

Bring the soul back from beyond

What once was gone is now alive

Sorcery! Alchemy!

Defying god to bring the dead to life

Sympathy, for what could not be

Defying god to bring the dead to life

I'll bring the dead to life

The dead arise

The creature is now alive
