The Nightmare King

by Solus   Jun 25, 2007


Years of sadness and tears too late.
All the lies you told locked us in this fate.
Innocence once taken can never be replaced
This darkness no one should have ever faced.
I am the darkling prince, the nightmare king.
Lost, I wander in this cold shadow ring.
Take back the lives you've stolen, the hurt and blame.
Your evil legacy took so much and still I feel the same.
Hope is gone; love is not enough to save.
I'm becoming this monster; I must hide in its dark cave.
In the end I won't let this creature come to be.
I'll destroy its gateway, my life the final fee.
