Gone are the days of terrible woe When fearful wrath rang true Abandoned was truth so vile, bewitched In favour of honour, although transfixed Was beacon of life and faith and hope renewed
In darkness we searched for light unpossessed By wisdom with taste bitter-sweet But life without death eventually failed And hope without deceit prevailed And the loneliness of The Watcher's gaze Our eyes did finally meet
The Watcher's love was fair and true, Though seldom faith returned We knew of evil, fear and hate And warning never mild or late But the apple was ripe, the axe was sharp And the Watcher's gaze was burned
We saw the Watcher's injuries But we never felt his pain So we rejected our absolution And revelled in our evolution And we washed our hands in rivers of blood While the storm-crow cried in vain
