You made a pact

You Said that one day we’d ride again

Was that a lie

Or can I come out one last time

We’d really shine

I’d show you what I have in mind

And we both know

You can’t resist that feeling

He has to hold it close beneath his cloak it clings to him

Whispering the hopes it holds within that curdled skull

As they approach the gates the ancient statues come to life

Guardians of long forgotten works to hone the mystic mind

Yes don’t you see

This could be how we take control

The two of us

All these tomes hold such secrets

The wizard weighs his oath against the malice in that voice

The cost he’d pay to break a bond sealed in his magic tongue
