The Deep Cut of Friendship
This has no music. It's a poem, from the heart. About Gabriel Sunblade
I feel the darkness round me
Clawing at my heart
This emptiness inside me
Is tearing me apart
I held your cooling body
The memories never fade
The sunlight now is dying
And all it leaves is blade.
You read between the lines I left
Saw what I refused to see
Your caution saved us both at times
I'm lost now it's just me
I thought we'd live forever
My dearest friend and I
Nothing could come between us
Yet on your bier you lie
I'll keep the Pact, I'll play your part
I'll make sure our dreams soar
Our plans reached to the highest heights
We could have been much more
The nights that we sat talking
The evil that we've faced
Ancestors we stood up to
Demons that we've chased
We're not immortal anymore
For all the songs have lied
The evil's so much stronger
Now that one of us has died
I felt the darkness round me
As the sun set on that day
And now the nightmares crowd me
My strength is drained away
The life we had together
The memories never fade
The sunlight's swiftly dying
And all I have's the blade
