The Black Sun

I. Contemporary
It's dark rays rained down
through distant times
stone man knew it
and feared its coming
the Black Sun shines

A purpling, billowing haze of sky
my eye perceiving the looming
dark; the gloom that pierces
and rains dark rays
into a tired world

Its coming is a trumpet blast
heralding a Darker Age
that shadows the world
the purple clears and
though its dissapation
the Black Sun still shines

I wrap my arms around
my tired tattered body
wrapped ina faded cowl
I leave the upturned pram
behind and shield my face
from the black suns harsh reign
Oft' sought by some
but dreaded by the many
its coming long foretold
the sky, the sea, the earth
and far above
Black Sun shines down
(- and it will shine forever)

The Black Sun
II - Traditional
The Black |Sun has
shone through the ages
The Black Sun has
cast its rays down
upon history's time, history' spages
bringing darkness to city and town
You who walk
under blue skies so freely
don't think the Black Sun
isn't there
It is watching and marking the ages
and waiting to see if you'll dare
If you'll dare
to walk 'neath stranger vistas
where the Black Sun now rules
in warped skies
so twisted, so bent, so awaiting
to reach down and to capture your eyes
