Ophthalamia

A Black Rainbow Rising (Castle Of No Repair III)

Ophthalamia


Why does my heart feel so cold in this heat of cruelty? 
Is it the bloody business which informs thus to mine eyes 
May the huntress take my soul For love never existed 

I am touched by evil I am baptized in blood 
A rainbow in black is rising Over a still ocean swept in misery 

The sun is hiding behind murky clouds And never will the bloody 
stains go away All my will for life has been torn to gray 
I must hide in darkness And I must dress in shadows 
My doom is told by the witness of the crowns Has been torn to 
grey, I've been torn to grey 

Every night has been the worst yet worst is to come 
All smiles are born to die an dead is all laughter 
Smell the stench of death 
Feel the choking pain 

Darkest thought so dreadful made doomed and sorrowful 
I've poisoned my dreams to nightmares 
I am empty and cold but still filled with horror and dread 
To be king was it worth the price? 

And what seemed corporal melts like breath into the wind
