Judgment Day

Across the shadowed lands the old one stood With a look of stone and staff of wood.
Evil stared along the shore where the powers of goodness worked no more.

The cities stood still as people cried for the ones in power had once again lied.
In tales of magic where once shone light
Now stood darkness hatred and night.

Mothers cry and fathers weep we face our end !
We face defeat” !

As demons laugh and the people fall 
god save us now, god save us all !,
“For we knew not what we had done until to late 
When we had lost the sun on that date”.

“Forgive us our wrongs” 
 the old one said,
We should follow the path and join the dead.
As he raised his hands and started to pray,

The demon king screamed 

“Its judgement day !“
