Not one crime had been reported for the town of Milton Creek
Then a US Marshal knocked on the door and then came...

Prince William arose with quite the shock
to the sound of someone picking his bedroom lock.
“Who is there? I must know” as he watches the door
slam open like waves on the shore.
But to his surprise, he...

Dark Clouds are gathering over the sea,
and shadows now race across the mudflats.
What use to me now is fitful moonlight
I pray to the gods, for I am in fear
What the sand seizes, it never lets...

Drunk with revenge, the knight pondered,
Lit the candles, took the oath
Die for honor, foe to loathe.

Bloodthirsty sword in scabbard,
The lance mocking the Holy Hazard,
The haughty...

Its grey stones stand ominous henge,
Stood in a chapel that rose above the water,
Filled with well meaning, smiling sons and daughters,

Druid Arwn with flowing mane his Grove did call
With upraised arms he did chant in ancient rime

Imagine this.
I belong in a cage.
Imagine this. 
I’ve escaped.

Imagine this.
You’re to blame.
Imagine this.

Bloody, destroyed, disemboweled.

Imagine this.

Plays on; below the stage the truth lies quite.
Hold off the...

I feel like I'm trying to lick a stone
Let's not say Easter Island - nothing weird
Not even Stone Henge
Non descript standing stones... faux history
There's not a lot to be gained 
Particularly as I'm not really...

He would,
Certainly seek some of all revenge;
