Cordelia's Martyrdom
       (C) 1990 N.Thomas
/ D. Turner

       Y
ou're tumbling through sleepless nightmares
       Forbidden destiny, a haunting melody
       Angry honesty, plagued with alchemy
       A state of anarchy moving closer

       You're moving closer over the edge
       Into the chasm, the chasm of darkness
       Vision of truth, vision of reason
       Steals the light through eternal night
       And endless flight moving closer

            Looking back I can barely see the path that led her here
            Strewn with blood and entrails and the stench of rotting souls
            Taken by Valhalla's angels from this place to the next
            Where the carved hearts of ignorance have gnawed at natures giants
            The torturing cuts deeper into memories of a lost childhood
            Lost to a menacing evil, lost to the seventh veil
            And all the distant echoes disturbed but not forgotten
            Repeat across the valley, the mountains and the plains
            To rest within the final quarters of the last warmth in her heart
