Hammers of Misfortune - The Raven's Bell

The raven emerging
From the smoke thats circling
An ebony being
Lilting woeful psalms of the dead
Intoning heavy mortal hopes
That toil and pass

I swear, I heard it say
Oh one by one we
Drop away
Hear the narrow grave
Calling you my child

Moth like stars that flicker
Twilight undone
Oh vanity of hope
Hearts fruitless desires

I swear, I heard it say
Oh one by one we
Drop away
Hear the narrow grave
Calling you my child

In decay
Flame under flame
Till time be no more
As tides reel from shores - Ohh

Everlasting
Sweet voice be still
Where does thy beauty lie
Oh how dim the fire
And the breath that I hold
Oh and it all comes down
To this breath I hold
