The Shadowlands - Benedictum

Seek, find

Enter my tortured mind

Investigate, all out war awaits

Roaring, seething, tearing down heaven’s abode

Writhing, heeding the call to arms

Waging war in the Shadowlands

As I cry out I bring down the rain

Acts of war in the Shadowlands

Harbinger of destruction and pain

Love, hate

They often compensate for me

Fear blinds, it is the enemy mind

Piercing screams, they echo inside my head

Penetrate that dark facade

Straight through you

Waging war in the Shadowlands

As I cry out I bring down the rain

Acts of war in the Shadowlands

Harbinger of destruction and pain

We atone in the Shadowlands

Wielding weapons of conscious control

Art of war in the Shadowlands

As we march through the bone yard of souls

No light at the window

As we fall from a false state of grace

Tread lightly as I go

And now escape

No light from the window

No warmth from the heat of the day

Tread lightly as I go

Beyond the lines I break

Depression came

But hope remained

Forge the path that brings peace at last

Waging war in the Shadowlands

As I cry out I bring down the rain

Acts of war in the Shadowlands

Harbinger of destruction and pain

My sword unsheathed as I face a known enemy

No fear

I see unleashed the madness in me
