Empty

my heart is torn, my soul is bare,
my love is gone, no life to share,

in silent thought, my mind a-drift,
no love to hold, the shadows shift,

a rippled lake, my tortured soul,
in pain I cry, within this hole,

there is no light, no warmth inside,
my heart is black, alone I hide,

I have no love, I have no life,
no way to leave, or end this strife,

all hope is gone, my life is lost,
for precious love, my soul the cost,

please take me now, and end this night,
please take my life, and end this fight.

Forsaken Love

Love once lost is ever lost,
to one who loves with all his heart,
when true love bears the final cost,
and love once found is torn apart.

Love is lost and never found,
to one who never knows it’s worth,
sorrowed tears a hollow sound,
in love there is no last re-birth,

Love is cold and without hope,
when all is lost and lovers part,
hearts when split can never cope,
without love, life must depart.

Alone

alone I walk the streets at night,
alone I pray to end this life,
alone I am, alone I stay,
alone I live, in endless strife,

alone I eat, alone I sleep,
alone I live, alone I dream,
alone I walk, alone I run,
alone I cry, alone I scream,

alone, the hole in which I lay,
alone I am, no love to send,
alone is home, alone is all,
alone I am, right to the end.

Love Wish

I wish you were with me tonight,
My room lit up by candlelight,
I’d look at you from toe to head,
Your hair a a-glow, a fiery red,

I’d hold you gently in my arms,
To clear your mind of any qualms,
I’d whisper slowly in your ear,
To tell that you need not fear,

I’d run my fingers through your hair,
Then down your cheeks, your skin so fair,
I’d kiss you on your lips so sweet,
A kiss to sweep you off your feet,

I’d take you in my arms once more,
And pray you’d stay forever more,
To always have you by my side,
Would be, to me, the greatest pride.

Forbidden Love

This love is like a burning flame,
a feeling of eternal pain,

A fire deep beneath my skin,
reminding me of this great sin,

I see the world with jaded eyes,
a curtain drawn across the skies,

I feel the wind rush through the trees,
as guilt now brings me to my knees,

Forbidden love, as like the fruit,
has taken me, my life now moot.

My freedom taken from my hands
redemption lost in time's great sands.

Engyl Lleferydd

Angels high above the earth,
gave to you this gift at birth,
a gift to sing like those above,
a voice that brings both joy and love,

Each time i hear your wondrous voice,
my heart and soul, they do rejoice,
you bring me up when i am down,
you make me smile each time i frown,

your music is my guiding light,
my guardian in the darkened night,
a burning torch within the dark,
upon each quest that i embark,

lost, without your voice, i'd be,
it means so very much to me,
your talent is by no means small,
you are a gift from god, to all,

an angel's voice is seldom found,
but with such voice, you have been crowned,
please stay with us and sing your song,
forever would not be too long.

Peace

across these lands of varied minds,
live creatures born of different kinds,
each of which is taught the way,
to live and love, to work and play,
this knowledge is, without a doubt,
impossible to live without,
knowledge, given by another,
mother, sister, father, brother,
no creature can learn this alone,
the only way is to be shown,
and so we all must co-exist,
and never must we try resist,
for every creature, man and beast,
must try to live as one, at least,
if we fail, we all shall be,
no longer part of land or sea,
but if we try, and we succeed,
we all will live, for this great deed,
for peace is not a foreign dream,
nor as impossible as it would seem,
if we can all just make it work,
no longer will an evil lurk,
no longer would we live in fear,
no longer would we shed a tear,
peace is not up in the skies,
it's here if we open our eyes,
see not the world you're told to see,
but see instead what it could be,
a place where we can all be free,
man & beast in harmony,
and so I leave you with a choice,
to put unto your inner voice,
live in peace, or die at war,
we all decide the final score,
I do believe this is the way,
we all must live from day to day,
if we all wish to survive,
cast aside your doubts and strive,
to bring together all the earth,
regardless of belief or birth,
the choice is yours, and yours alone,
at stake, your life and all you own.

Apocalypse

Angels on a fiery wind,
screaming down at all who've sinned,
eyes a-gleam throughout the night,
frightened by unholy light,

the lord looks down upon the world,
a blackened darkness now unfurled,
no holy light can penetrate,
this cloud of sin will not sedate,

alas the world is at an end,
no mortal being shall now transcend,
the gates of heaven bolted tight,
the door to hell is now in sight,

Satan guards his world below,
he welcomes strangers, friend or foe,
to enter this, the world we've built,
a world of pain, of endless guilt,

a world to which we bring the young,
eternal torment now begun,
we live alone, no hope in sight,
enslaved in this eternal night.

Dark Walk

I live and walk the world at night,
my home and haven have no light,
my heart and soul are black and grim,
my life is filled with naught but sin,

I live alone and without hope,
I often wonder how I cope,
I live on death, and feed on life,
I lavish in each mortal's strife,

I walk amongst you through the dark,
as if I’m some immortal shark,
I hunger for all that you've seen,
my lust is for what could have been,

I fear not death, but feareth life,
it cuts me deep, as if a knife,
it's blade runs right into my core,
I wonder if I will endure,

I once had hopes and dreams and prayers,
I once had love and faith and cares,
alas I’ve lost all that I had,
enslaved and chained, my soul is bad,

I call to mortals, through the cold,
please value that which you hold,
that which I, and many more,
have lost, now and forever more,

Think about the world around,
each tiny ant upon the ground,
and value all that life has here,
and never hide from any fear,

We call you from the darkened cave,
deep within an earthly grave,
Think before you enter here,
live your life, cry a tear,

Live a life of joyous games,
and seek all that this life contains,
This life is yours and that is all,
and never to the depths you’ll fall.

Vampyr

On cold, dark nights, he can be found,
hid from the lights, upon the ground,

With blood-shot eyes he stalks his prey,
no worldly-ties, no words to say,

His soul is locked beneath the soil,
his body trapped in endless toil,

He hungers for another life,
a chance to end his bitter strife,

Alas he must, and always shall,
remain a slave, an immor-tal,

His lust to kill, to drink the life,
with fangs that shame a hunter's knife,

This want and need have all control,
and keep him from his mortal soul,

A slave to blood, to evil needs,
deprived of love, and all good deeds.
