Flowing through the river Dead
Lost to each side, the shore
Swept away by currents Death
To forgotten Realms of Lore
My body gone to the river Dead
Lost to my mind, the Door
Swept from view the longing Death
To walk through Life no more
As the Hunter black
Lifts His mighty sword
And swings through Ash and Bone
Taking from the Realm of Life
Every joy He’s known
And the Archer red
Draws back His bow
And looses through Fire and Air
Taken from his Blinding Eye
All for which He ever cared
The Queen knows not of Lovers lost
Or battles yet to come
She waits within her Rosen den
She waits for new born Sun
Flowing through the river Dead
The Archer lost His way
Swept away be currents Death
The Hunter lost His stay
Through Realms of Life and Death and Love
I search for greater truth
And find within the Bloodied sword
That lost to me all proof
Through Realms of Death and Love and Life
I search for true serenity
And find within the Broken arrow
That lost the world to Me
Through Realms of Love and Life and Death
I search for lesser pain
And find within my Holy Sun
Returned to me again
Flowing through the river Dead
Comes to me the Door
Swept away be currents Death
To Life and Love and Lore.
