1. PERENNIAL

Time and time we’ve circled
Stood still as horrid acts unfurled
Dormant guilt, useless rage
For the last time will we relish this age

A realm so merciful and patient
Now yearning to erase a species so complacent
We remain no longer...

Empires turn to ash and roads remain shadowed,
Premonitions are futile when we behave as cowards.

The ultimate veil will fall
No longer will we stand tall
We’ve lingered far too long in our cocoon,
Become one with our mother but we died too soon.

The regret and shame we feel,
Will always last in our reel
Dazed, cold, lonely and scared,
Centuries of torment she’s fared
The torch we were once given,
Dies out as our bodies stiffen

Empires turn to ash and roads remain shadowed,
Premonitions are futile when we behave as cowards.

The ultimate veil will fall
No longer will we stand tall

Forfeit our once sacred land
Behold the pathetic fall of man
Destroyers of beauty, serene
Poisoned by endless acts, obscene

Drink from the vile well of greed
From her very soul we feed
Eternal decay, it follows
A sight so rich yet it’s hollow
The ultimate veil revealed a future so bright
Never more will we be it’s light...

The ashes of empires and shadowed roads now gone,
Premonitions once futile gave way to a new dawn.


2. RELICS OF THE NATURAL REALM

After the eras of our occupation we have now withered,
And here you so beautifully remain
A once desolate wasteland now thrives in a sea of flora and fauna
Embellishing a realm formerly tattered and bare
A somber end impossible to endure

Colors of a dried pallete reclaim their rightful throne
Remnants of a once-reigning species reduced to nothingness
The memory of them fading ever so quickly

Frail remains shattered into a thousand pieces
Being swept away by the wind
Gone and buried in the currents of time

The dawning of a new age established by relics locked away
Her perennial power adorns the natural realm

And so it was told,
we are but lost souls
Our epilogue now set in stone

After the age of our long forgotten reign,
Forevermore you beautifully remain
