Blackened Woods

Cold winter night
The calm before the storm
Silent branches waving goodbye
As the day departs once more.

I am of the roving man
My fathers name I bear as mine for all to see
Through the flames I seek the path
Of vengeance for his life.

The ancient lore speaks of a line forlorn
Embrace the fateful day when the ravens fly.

I bear the name of cursed kin
These blackened woods forgive my sins.

Those bright lit days have been pulled from the skies
As I'm living my way through an absent man's life
The only things left to regret are the times I thought I had
And the bards shall chant my name as my flames lay waste to land.

Branded, stealing lives in furious rage
Hunted, the beast behind my eyes
I have come.

Now carry my sword with care my son
Fall back from the light embrace the night.

I bear the name of cursed kin
These blackened woods forgive my sins
You fear my name and what's within
These blackened woods forgive no sins.
