Long Forgotten Lore Lyrics


My purpose has become

Clear

Looking over the earth

On the precipice of destruction

The lands once green and full of life

Now cold and grim

For a thousand years we prospered

Possessors of knowledge and power

Our lust for knowledge grew

Ever outwards sowing the seeds of our death

Failure to look within

Has brought forth our doom

The ancient ones awoken once more

To take back what was theirs

Their reclamation has begun

Our kind will not survive

Thousands have already died

Life time of study

Arcane and occult

Black magic

And evil prophecies

There has to be a way

To send the ancient horde

Back to oblivion

My energy has always been strong

My power has always grown

I must find a way to end this

What ever it takes they must go

Secret spell of sacrifice

Long forgotten lore

Locked away in deepest vaults

It sees the light once more

A sacrifice must be made

To appease the evil spell

My only hope to save this land

Yet I will die as well

I will be forgotten

Only my bones will Remain

Can I bring myself to do this,

To save my only home

With grim resolve I understand

This must be done

Forgotten tome lays open

Reading words aloud

Summoning my energy

The ancient ones will fall

Solo

They all are drawn towards me

Like moths drawn to the flame

Swarming together

Suffocating me

With my final breath I scream

Incantation of ultimate death

Almost choking as I run out of air

I push the final word

The ancient ones eyes widen

They turn to flee

Too late for them now

Screaming in agony

Flesh peeling from their bones

Their own power was their doom

Melt away and turn to dust

Demon leave our realm

Banished back to whence you came

Evil is gone

My task is completed

The suffering can end

My brothers and sisters of this land

Can live in peace again

My journey is over

This place is my tomb

I lie and wait for death

As blackness closes in

As aeons passed

The people had forgotten

The invasion of

The ancient ones

Explorers excavated

An ancient burial site

Skeleton lay

next to Ancient Tome
