The Ballad of the Damned

This is a song of shadows A story of sorrows A tale of torment And tearful tomorrows The broken keys weep the cruelest of chords A war for love is ended by the swiftest of swords Here lies the king who died for his queen The play-write of fate will pen no more scenes And as the ferryman rows legends turn to sand The sirens sing slowly The Ballad of the Damned
