(I - The Forbidden Words) (II - Incantation) (III - Passage of Time) (IV - The Silent Threat) (V - Achilles Heel) (VI - Covenant of Souls) (VII - Face to Face) (VIII - Disintegration) (IX - Aftermath) Let no man breach the gate to this most blasphemous of halls Lest bitterness and chaos be the harvest they wouldst reap He must ne'er become a slave to this Child's beck and call For she must never waken from her Crimson Sleep.. The monastery stood towering above the ruined city It shadowed all the new emerging settlements and homes To look down on the ruins was to sympathize and pity All the suffering and heartache, all the graves and broken bones For buried there a testament to the evil of a queen A misery that spread across a weak and stricken land The crimson birth that swamped the earth in dark and deadly dreams And all mankind did bow beneath the power of her hand And in the monastery garden sat a woman with a book A manuscript that lay within her frail and trembling arms She looked around her nervously as guilt rose in her heart But the sway of curiosity had drawn her out too far She wavered on the threshold of a dangerous decision For this dark tome was no for human eyes to ever read The pages dripped with legions of persuasive words and visions So the volume had been hidden well, but now it had been freed For no apparent reason had the woman been drawn in Perhaps it was a twist of fate, an absence of real thought She wandered to a room that before she'd never been And all at once the interest of her senses had been caught For no apparent reason had the women been drawn in Where rows of dusty books lay in an ominous display But one ancient leather binding had the grain of human skin And seized with curiosity she stole this book away And now she sat alone in the concealment of the night She was hungry now to liberate the writings from their cage The glimmer of a feeble moon provided her with light As she opened up the cover and began to read the page Fly, soul, the body's guest, Upon your impish arrant Let none be guiled by false confession Truth shall be your warrant Fly soul for your body must die But for those who seek eternity For those who yearn prosperity From this single act of sanity Will raise you far above humanity Oh willing host who doth not know The full desire of this prisoner You walk where angels fear to go Thou shalt soon embrace the reckoner Thy halo of glory, hope's true gage May prove to be an evil pilgrimage Something had happened beyond her control A moment of madness unfettered a soul That would relish a freedom denied once before By a desperate nation with it's back to the wall Within a split second of reading this text The spirit was free and had fled from its nest It was eager to grow from this sudden reprieve And thus in the woman a life was conceived From the beginning the world was misled As a baby was born in a monastery bed The miracle happening here on this Earth Was perceived as a glorious new Virgin Birth From the moment in time that baby was born The sun did now rise on a new Crimson dawn And the creature just bided its time undiscovered So safe in the cradling arms of the mother (Lead: Dan) But for those who seek eternity For those who yearn prosperity From this single act of sanity Will raise you far above humanity Secure from the world, the child remained hidden A serpent disguised in the Garden of Eden And all who looked down on this newly born babe Were ignorant now of the path this would take The people were blind to the subtle control That was exercised daily upon every soul With no room to question this delicate life All fears would be drowned and all doubts would be stifled But one single mind did stand out from the crowd Though quiet at first - with hardly a sound The Mother Superior harbored suspicion Brought to her heart by three simple vision (The Visions:) The first was a planet engulfed by the sea No dry land in sight, not a mountain or tree No rock jutted out from the endless horizon Or flowers to mark out the changing of seasons No animals dwelt in the forests or fields All life was extinct; its fate had been sealed By the curse of a violent unstoppable flood Mankind had been drowned in an ocean of blood The next revelation was vivid and cruel It depicted two swordsmen engrossed in a duel The one held a sword that was silver and pure The other a sword that was red to the core They fought as the sun rose high in the sky Their fight would not end until one of them died No room did they have for an error to make For the future of life was the trophy at stake But one of the warriors flouted the rules And with cunning and guile had the other one fooled As he held up his hands in a gesture of peace The silver opponent allowed this retreat Then the man with the red sword attacked from behind Left the silver sword fighter defeated and blind Then carnage ensued that no man could condone As the bloody red blade sliced through sinew and bone All day did the swordsman attack without halt Though the other lay dead from the frenzied assault Until by the twilight and all that remained Were the echoes of death and a fresh crimson stain And so came the third of these unyielding visions A picture of war and ferocious divisions An army of saviors marching as one Aware that the end had already begun They arrived in a field, which was wide and expansive They waited in silence both ready and pensive The grassland was strewn with small crimson petals Their fragrance was sweet with the stench of the devil And slowly but surely they fell into sleep Their consciousness gone as they slumped in defeat And there they still lie bereft of their willpower Brought to their knees by the strength of a flower The three visions, the Mother Superior bore A bitter forewarning of what was in store This infant so frail must not grow to be strong The world was at risk if she waited too long So veiled by the blackness of night she did creep And enter where mother and child were both asleep And onwards she moved to where the crib lay She leant over the baby and started to pray She prayed for forgiveness for what she would do She prayed that the knife in her hand would aim true But all of a sudden she was now paralyzed The baby daughter had opened her eyes (Lead: Mike) And into those eyes, the woman gazed The look in her face was both haunted and crazed She was smothered and swamped in confusion and sadness The first to be gripped by this foul crimson madness This brutal psychosis could not be explained No one single cause was suggested or blamed But no one could think that a child was involved And the mystery illness remained unresolved
