Chance

If tomorrow were the end of this,
the end of pain, of happiness,
could you say that you lived it well?
and what great stories would you tell?

If all the world was set to fall,
no peace, no war, no law at all,
could you say that you'd made a mark?
and tell of how you used your spark?

If all of this were at and end,
no family, no foe or friend,
could you say that you'd lived it right?
Or will you make a change tonight?

Youth

I see a child- so safe and sound,
with friends and family gathered round,
no worries for the life ahead,
no monsters underneath the bed.

I see a house where youth was spent,
a garden where the dog was sent,
a street where children laughed all day,
a school yard where they used to play.

I see a birthday- cake and all,
an accidental trip and fall,
a mother hugs the hurt away,
her kiss means more than words can say.

I see a car that travelled well,
the distance one could never tell,
a happiness in every face,
no need to rush nor up the pace.

I see a dance, a first love's kiss,
a time of hope and total bliss,
a child growing to a man,
a future set out to a plan.

I see a man, his glowing bride,
their families so full of pride,
so many friends are gathered 'round,
nothing but love and laughther found.

I see another place called home,
another child not yet grown,
another street where children play
another life begins today.

my journey shown within these scenes,
my youth now lost but in these dreams,
the pictures end, the pages fold,
I close the book, this chapter told.

Lilith

All that you've said will be said tomorrow,
all that you have done will be done once more,
though your heart was once all mine to follow,
you needed more than my love could endure.

Nothing you can say to change tomorrow,
nothing you can do as the damage is done,
though you may find a new love to borrow,
nothing can stop that which first you begun.

All that is left can't save our tomorrow,
nothing to do but to start it again,
though you will cry it can't end the sorrow,
dragging my heart and soul far from your den.

Verse #2

Everything we say affects tomorrow,
everything we do defines who we are,
though some can lead and others must follow,
only as one will we get very far.

Neophyte

Glimpse the light of ancient lore,
read the signs to find the door,

free your mind from the profane,
seek the truth in the arcane,

know the light from the abyss,
keep your brother from re-miss,

walk the path that others seek,
see and hear but never speak.

The Path to Light

The force that binds us, sets us free,
to see the light of destiny,
to build the temple walls again,
within the hearts and minds of men.

The truth is here for all to see,
the god that lives in you and me,
a heaven closer than we think,
the knowledge lost to make that link.

The force that made us, breaks us too,
until we find that path so true,
the world repeats this age old tale,
until we find the holy grail.

The secrets of our ancient kin,
are locked away within our skin,
to find them we must all believe,
atonement shall we thus receive.

ValenTen

More precious than the rarest stone,
more sacred than an ancient throne,
the way to light from dark you've shown,
a place of love as yet unknown.

More lovely than an open rose,
more radiant than a star that glows,
if nothing more this life now shows,
each day this love we share still grows.

More needed than the air i breathe,
more special than you can believe,
through all the pain the gods conceive,
my heart is yours- with no reprieve.

Returnity

How can i turn back the clock?
Reverse the endless tick and tock,
go back to that most precious start,
before this dark world broke my heart.

How can I take back the time?
The roll of days in quick decline,
go back to where i once was safe,
before this life destroyed my faith.

How can i regain the years?
Forget the pain and all the tears,
go back to where the lines were crossed,
before my soul was truly lost.
