Light's Darkest Shadow

[font=Tahoma,Geneva]I took a journey in ghoulish battle  
Holding her love of pure subtle  
I have faced death over and over  
And counted bodies on my fingers  
   
I raised my flag high in heaven  
In nightmare, soon I’ll be awaken  
Desolate land and soul forsaken  
Every place I seized left barren  
   
When war has finally expired  
I brought home victory and pride  
Everything was destroyed by fire  
Let us rejoice, my beautiful bride  
   
How fulfilling to hold her again  
Smell her scent and forget pain  
Her heartbeat like pounding rain  
Knowing our love will never end  
   
But a cold heart welcomed me  
And gave me nothing but agony  
Her rotting flesh is all I see  
Please wake me in my reverie  
   
Take me to grave, my beloved  
I cannot endure, life in dread  
There’s no hope, all joys fled  
I am alive, but good as dead
