Haunted Shores



Various Artists - Haunted Shores - Текст песни

 Herodias and I have led a phantom cavalcade 
 Through veiled and pagan history where superstitions reigned 
 And Christendom sought to pervert, but poets of my name 
 Sang of penumbral victories that sorcery had claimed 
 The Graal and mighty Caliburn as votive offerings 
 To an England rearisen under vast majestic wings 

 These are the shores whereto my soul 
 Blood drenched and unredeemed 
 Shalt seek solace in secrets told 
 Through the whispers of a dream

 From the woods Pendragon-born, I rose Arcturius 
 A proud, audacious King mantled in the 
 vehemence of lust 
 Death and destiny undaunted me, I drew a throne divided 
 In awe of the glorious battles won, my dark Goddess provided 
 Then treachery, a wingless beast, came crawling to my court 
 And now I lie at cursed Camlann, from wounds a traitor wrought

 I fear the Augean light 
 is sweeping through Camelot 
 How bittersweet my triumphs seem, 
 now Autumnal leaves succumb to frost 
 Morganna art thou near me? 
 Languid, I wend my path to grave 
 Cast my sword to the sulphyd grasp 
 Of the naiad neath the silvered lake 
 When waters stirred lay silent

 Mistress let the mists descend 
 Thy tears cannot thaw Death's cold heart 
 His sombre gaze defies legend 
 More so than thine, else thy dew-lidded eyes 
 Art for the Banshees song 
 Or our souls entwined like vein upon 
 The haunted shores of Avalon

 The haunted shores of Avalon

 Bury me in velvet dream 
 Lest I unduly wake 
 And seek to reconcile my thirst 
 With the cowardly tailors of my fate 
 Unleash mastiffs of snarling night 
 To overthrow, plague and burn 
 As slumber lures me 'mongst the dead 
 To scheme of my return

 Archaic ghostly echoes breathe like thunder of the storm 
 A tempest fools miscall divine as they crouch awaiting dawn 
 Their ignorance has forged for me over 
 centuries a sword 
 Burnished to flash like lightning on the precipice of war 
 The wolves are dead in Albion whilst the 
 passive flocks roam free 
 This my penetrant spearhead shalt pierce these foul, 
 trespassing breeds
