I once heard tales
The fires burning and lighting the path
Shadows stretching under a white hot gaze
So oppressive yet so beautiful
A blade in the back that warms the heart
Or so it would appear to be
Life giving and stealing both
What yearning I have had to quell
What hardships I have faced in the
Light of this torment so branded me
What lifetimes I would have given for that sun
To kiss my face
My darkened faced so pale from the depths in which I stood
And from those depths I carried this spark
This spark granted me in dreams I could not fathom
These dreams that carried me forth
A charge that lifted my soul
Beyond the drudgery of those below
Safe inside their walls
And what mountains I have bested
What kingdoms laid bare
This obsession granted me strength to find what?
A garden so wilted and shamed beyond rebirth
A wasted aeon granted what?
A spark from me given unwilling?
So tell me what it was worth...
What light exists for me?
What gardens tales have promised me
A fruit in trees, light dappled leaves
There's more this stone yet hides from me
But I cannot know
The dusting of this daily bread
Devoid I rest my weary stead
There's nothing, there's something, there's nothing said
This silent eden surrounds me yet
I promised, I promised, I promised me
You promised me
You promised me
What archon calls for me?
Cut cloth and paved the way for me?
Here I stand awaiting his decree
This pounding silence will not cease
For I cannot know
I have done all he asked of me
And here broken - I'm left wanting
There's nothing, there's something, there's nothing left
This silent eden surrounds me yet
I promised, I promised, I promised me
You promised me
You promised me
this is all you're getting from this album before it's done, sorry!

This is incredibly cool! Always super awesome to hear music of this persuasion on FA. I adore the transition from spoken-word to harsh vocals; such a sick moment!
Thank you so much! This is the intro track to an album I've got in the works and I'm really doing everything I can to keep the level of storytelling and epicness going XD
I have had *several* people tell me that that's a Very Good Moment™ and it makes me so happy ;3;
