League Of Rogues

Take the powers of the maiden.
From the goddess of revival.
Return from the dead.

Fire synapses in your head.
Read from Lovecraft and the Bible.
The portrait's of you now instead.

Read into the meaning.
Show us direction.
And grow to unreasonable size.

Protect us and guide us.
You will provide for us.
You with the inhuman eyes.

The league of rogues wanders time and space.
Searching for where they might call home.
The league of rogues, living out of place.
They belong nowhere that is known.
They are the league of rogues.

Coursing through tunnels of alien design.
Soldier with unnatural strength in his veins.
Pulled from the fire of explosion.

Abandoned child in an ancient time.
Unused to hearing her name.
Freed from her prison of corrosion.

Lasers and swords and laser swords.
Machines of sheer power and flame.
Aboard the mighty space-faring ship.

Joining together, choosing their words.
Selecting carefully like a game.
Their sorrows will spill from their lips.

The league of rogues wanders time and space.
Searching for where they might call home.
The league of rogues, living out of place.
They belong nowhere that is known.
They are the league of rogues.

Author's Note
This one is based on a story I wrote that would take far too long to properly describe.
I had to trim it down some because the chorus repeats another three times at the end and that seemed a bit excessive.
