Tired of dull ages, I walk the same ground,
collecting the tragedies still
Hollow ambitions in a hollow mind

carried my cross to the hill

And how I lust for the dance and the fire

deep of the nectarine sunset to drink
spill me the wind and its fire
to steal of the colors - I'm the moonshield


Shattered hope became my guide
and grief and pain my friends

a brother pact in a blood-ink penned
declare my silent end


Naked an dying under worlds of silent stone
reaching for the moonshield that once upon us shone
