This is a song of shadows A story of sorrows
A tale of torment
And tearful tomorrows

The broken keys weep
the cruelest of chords
A war for love is ended
by the swiftest of swords

Here lies the king
who died for his queen
The play-write of fate will pen no more scenes

And as the ferryman rows
legends turn to sand
The sirens sing slowly
The Ballad of the Damned
