A fall of man, a dark path of redemption.
To breach the inmost vault of thy lone soul,
T'would diminish the passion in thy veins;
Free flowing as a tear-filled ocean whole,
Cascading forth as gloom upon the rains.

Just watch the Darkness fall into each crack,
Conjuring shadows that creep among dreams.
Slowly painting thy human soul jet black,
Passion twists itself between two extremes.

To dread the tear, instead declare the strange
The shadows strip thy courage from thyself.
Thou must will passion, and to craft a change,
And seize thy courage from thou wicked shelf.

To Hell and back expounds thy Will be true,
Tis Hell itself; to train thy Will anew.
