Tilting The Hourglass

You take my breath away...

But Ill never again taste your lips

As fate keeps me locked away

I must close my eyes to see your faceEmptiness has darkened my eyes

As I hopelessly beg for my life to end

...tell my why...

My iron eyes tell the tale

Heroes always pay in their blood

I can be only thisI see the fear growing in their lost eyes

My purpose is so clear...I am the ax

I am the ax and this is why I must not fear the end

And when I'm gone will you forget me?

Pen wears its steady course across the page

Resigned to its designs to take the hiveEmptiness has darkened my eyes

As I hopelessly beg for my life to end

...tell my why...

I wish I could make you see, I wish I could make you see through the pain

Through the end, I wish I could make you see the greater purpose that

I have to serve...no one else will fight...no one else will fight...so I must

My iron eyes tell the tale

Heroes always pay in their blood

I can be only this...I am the ax...

Fear has been lost to faith

The darkest night has come before the end

Of which we must prevail

Amidst the pitch of steel we shall arise

I will destroy all those who oppose meMy iron eyes tell the tale

Heroes always pay in their blood

I can be only thisI see the fear growing in there...
