sacred bond

 
weeps the dawn and the brotherhood of men
culted fascination between souls of the immortal realm
feigning loyalty, forgotten faith, stirs

rising up within me
stalwalt judgement and swayed truth
in sync with the alchemy of the moment
desire of the ancient way

one comes forth from the shadows
and I am beside myself with grief
hinder not the way with mischief
it is understood there is a chasm between us
our bond broken

a blood oath taken between brothers
lay waste over a woman
the womb did trouble
blasphemy over the eternal
is the rift between us

a seed of doubt, lies on my mind
brother of the sacred deed, tell me
how have you thus faired?

secreting yourself away
I can barely feel you
betrothed to justice
is this just?
to hide away

sanctity of the damned
shall rise against you
and speak your demise into being

forfeit your value, for a different world
sanctify, fortify yourself
my honor is on the line

talking to faith you stutter shaming me
please do, alter your course
in right stead keeping with your morality
enter into an understanding of your rigid facts
that darkens your honesty clouding your judgement

brother by the law be damned
who has already forsaken you
in my halls banished as a betrayer

pick up your weapons and defeat the beast in you
slay the moment
and enter peace
