Wraith

Dark Fortress

A specter writhes
 Too faint for mortal eyes
 A mere ululation

 A deathless witness
 Lurid in demise
 Spawned from pain and tribulation

 Unsound
 Undead

 Evanescing
 An orphaned want, marooned
 In disembodied mayhem, howling

 Just a shadow
 Waning with the moon
 Ever yearning, ever prowling

 Doomed to linger, a wraith in a withered world
 You will never sleep again
 Lifeless eyes, forever haunted by the void
 Gage upon the tomb of man

 Cold and dried up
 The ravaged plains lie dead
 Buried ruins sing of the end

 Faces fade away
 Frozen in convulsion
 In broken temples, gods quietly die

 And gales roam unrestrained
 Lick the horror from revulsion
 Beneath the weeping scars in the sky
