Empyrean Sky Lyrics


Empyrean sky black shapes coagulate'neath the empyrean sky

A harvest moon rides lightly therean omniscient midnight spy

Amongst the stars appears a sign

A great dragon of seven heads, who tears out the eyes of heavenand with darkness fills their stead

As the king of tyre doth fall

We must head the angels? call,

For they know temptation well,

But fear not the gates of hell

Phul's wings spread o'erhead;

Seductive sprite with boots to the thigh

The trees adore her gentle caress,

For in the wind you can hear their sighs

See how the princess dances round in the trees

While the wind plays the willow song softly and sweet

Her mind full of love, completely at ease

Unaware of the storm rolling in from the east

The black light from a cloud covered sky

Pierces the heart on this murderous night

And our heroine, the fair one, doth fall

To the sound of the howling wolves call

See the creatures creep slowly from the ground

And gather the princess 'round

With symbols anointing the ground

The maiden reborn as a fairy astounds

Now the story shifts from the wooded site

To a differnt place on the same dark night

Bright eyes peering through the reeds and fronds

Watching a killer at work about a dreary pond

Gaze up and behold the sky...

His victim struggles helplessly as he forces her to the ground

She scratches at his arms, the struggle stops as she drowns

He shows no emotion; no love, no lust, no pain, no regret

The scratches on his arms; memories he'll soon forget

Gaze upward, behold the empyrean sky

Majestic darkness covers up the light

Gaze upward, behold the empyrean sky

Close your eyes and listen to the night

Remember the princess, the fairy born of the trees?

She senses this evil through the animals unease

They ask her to help them rid the forest of the man,

The killer, unfeeling, the one who murders with his hands

So the fairy flies, circling the swamp,

'till she comes upon the man with death on his hands

The midnight spy looks down upon the weary man

And sees a confused lover lying on the sand

Thus the fairy lands and places her soft hand

Upon the killer's brow, unloved until now

The killer startled jumps surprised by the sight

And wonders what foul things are happening this night

His fists raised up high

To strike the fairy down

But in the presence of her love

A smile conquers his frown

See his demeanor change from hate to lasting love

And as the mans sits down he removes his bloody gloves

In the name of she so fair

The once bitter doth proclaim

That with this newfound joy he'll never kill again

Gaze up and behold the sky?

Black shapes dissipate'neath the empyrean sky

The harvest moon once watching there

Now settles to close its eyes

Phul's wings fold neatly away,

The trees murmur their sweet goodbyes

See the glow as the sun wakes up

And the moonbeams cease to shine

Gaze upward, behold the empyrean sky

Majestic glow, chase out the night

Gaze upward, behold the empyrean sky

Close your eyes and bask in the light
