Sing a song of dawn

Dawn, the day reborn

Breathe deep of the dawn before the storm

This hearth

This home

Wrested forth from tired fingers

Bathed in blood

And sealed in stone

Souls scarred

Twelvefold

Beckoned by the bells of vengeance

Spirits bold

A lover lost

A family torn

A solemn pyre raised to rouse the slumb'ring heavens

Fire in your eyes

Fire in your hearts

Steeled as you sound the horns of war

Yet know the cost

For who shall morn

When light is quenched that another might burn brighter?

Let not the rays

Of justice blind

E'er trust in grace and she shall guide

Soft is the breeze that can set a petal free

And yes 'tis the storm that doth see the petal soar

High o'er trees in the throes of liberty

'Til unstirring skies consign her to memory

One kingdom's fall is another kingdom's freedom

One sovereign's was is another sovereign's peace

One mother's pride is another mother's sorrow

Their tears both soak the land that they love

Two lives

Two swords

Given in to shadowed whispers

Wicked words

Pray tell me true -

Doth louder toll

A rival's cry

Or the oaths that spur her onward?

Your time has come

A choice bestown

Tonight for unsung sins atone

This night, you need not walk alone
