Children of the land, do you hear
 Echoes of truths that once rang clear?
 Two souls intertwined
 One true love they did find
 Bringing land and heavens near
 But flames that burned full bright, soon fell dark
 Memories dimmed by shadowed hearts
 In the waxing gloom, did wane the lovers' moon
 Watching as their worlds drift apart
 ♪
 One soul's cry, a passion dwelling within
 Sacrifice, a final plea to her kin
 Yet this bond of hope, by treachery was broke
 Scattering her words to the wind
 ♪
 Swelling over long
 Seas of blood are a song
 And death an afterthought
 To those who fight for naught
 A throne lying empty
 A reign incomplete
 Alone for eternity
 A pain without cease
 ♪
 Children of the land, answer this;
 Why must you turn to empty bliss?
 Tell me why break trust, why turn the past to dust
 Seeking solace in the abyss?
 Tell me why create a circle none can break?
 Why must you let go, the life you were bestowed?
 This I fear I'll never know
 Never know
