Knight's Oath

To what end does grief hold it's charge?
Hallowed dreams of a lamplit luminous tomb
To whom does the foot soldier pledge his worth?
Radiant, in service to thee
No glory on this earth
No reflection in this mirror
For all, forgotten. For thee, forever
Cleft helm underfoot, rage smote upon brow

Endless blows raining down
Combat in glory, war blessed by God
Corpselight still follows, their dead eyes still watching
Crystal ships dripping with ice
Warrior fallen in silence

To what end does grief hold its charge?
Hallowed dreams of a lamplit luminous tomb
To whom does the foot soldier pledge his worth?
Radiant, in service to thee
No glory on this earth
No reflection in this mirror
For all, forgotten. For thee, forever
My love is dead by time's cruel hand
