River of Dark

Lethe, she gives and she takes,
A whisper in the dark,
A promise in the wind.

Hades dark cavern, we lie once more
Bear all the love we loved
And all the sins we sinned.

A gift so large, a price to pay
Hearts torn asunder
Souls she doth rend.

Till one day under Fates thread
A chance in time,
And she will mend.

Dark will be the days hence,
Despair her winding path
In the darkness, a light
In despair, a hope.

So drink, children of the Universe,
Cool water to end all things
And herald the New Age.
