Highlanders



Highlander scotsman
Kin most feared of all the isle
Many outnumbered

Strike the evil king
Impale his storm of legion
Waring all a day

Battle in their blood
Left to seep the holy ground
Forward to the fray

The walking wounded
Holding one another up
Never letting go

Draw up your weapon
Raise aloud your final song
Leap into glory

Quiet now good son
Be still the angry darkness
Thy legend begun

Rise to Green


Droughts of Famine Suns
To The Darkest Walks of War
Dying Rise to Green

Comes Then a Humming 
Desperation's Charging Ants 
Running Rise to Green

Waves Assault the Shore
Bloated Babies Float the Bay
Sea Mists Rise to Green

Packers Pick a Peck
Praying Justice Packs no Price
Hope Gives Rise to Green

Day and Night the Hours
Take the Livings to be Won
Work The Rise to Green

Having But My Own
Playgrounds Palace or a Plot
Bless This Rise to Green

Moses to Mars



Half wishes the end
Half dreams to live forever
Both in fact will pass

Future dilemmas
Left to reach the lofty stars 
Rights held firm to earth

Ducks in a longboat
Forgetting they can swim
Sad as some go down

Fate's frozen failings
Avalanche the falling clouds
Trumpeting the truth

Led by pharaoh babe's
Next's new kingdom they pursue
Hoping one is real

Dragon spawned in fire 
Far above a scorching earth
Meant to reach new land

Ego Sum Vobis


Oh my son my son
Forever I am with you
Never should you doubt

You are far away
I hear your desperation
I feel every tear

Your pain also mine
Though you feel it all alone
One day you will know

I sent you a gift
One I prayed to make you strong
Love never left you

My greatest of light
I am with you now once more
A love we embrace

New skies will be bright 
Agony distant and past
Again with my son

-Hermit King-
