THE TIGER KING

THE TIGER KING

His banner of orange and black flies in the sky
He is the king who inherited the tiger throne
He walks his castle with a tiger by his side
Tigers from all around call it home
His knights proudly wear the strange curved swords
That can slice through chain mail
And they give loyalty in oaths and words
Anything less would give them jail
He doesn't like to play any games in this age of steel
He sticks to himself and takes care of his people
But the news of the Riders are all too real
And he knows that they're nothing but evil
So now he must stand up and play their silly games
That other kingdoms to to show their power
For the protection of his kingdom and his family name
It will be Dovoria's finest hour
The darkness comes, he can see it in the clouds
From the east they come and they're riding fast
The Tiger King is ready, he roars long and loud
Calling all the tiger kings that ruled in the past.

LOOKS ARE EVERYTHING

LOOKS ARE EVERYTHING

You can be the nicest person in earth
Care for humanity and peace for what it's worth
But in the end it always comes down to looks
You are judged by your cover, not the entire book
I'm ugly but I try to be a decent human being
They don't see that but it's the monster they're seeing
There's beauty inside a beast like me
I just wish the world could open up and see
Ignore my hideous face, and see who I am
Don't laugh at my size, please do it if you can
See more than the physical mess I can be
Just peer past that and see the real me
But looks are everything in this superficial place
And no one can get past the looks on my face
They just see me as a social disgrace
I'll always be a loner, a sad broken soul
Never knowing what it's like to truly feel whole
Because people only see me as an ugly looking thing
In this vain society, looks are everything.

LAST WORDS

LAST WORDS

My love I have tried but I have failed
I'm wounded, and letting out a wail
I can't be there with you now, I wish I was
I lie in the street, my body leaking blood
It all started when I honked my horn
Someone almost cut me off so I had to warn
It didn't stop there, words were exchanged
It happened all fast it's hard to explain
He pulled out a gun and shot me five times
And now I'm lying here and I'm about to die
The sirens are too far away they won't be here in time
The thought of not seeing you again runs through my mind
If I stayed calm, I would be coming home to you
And now I'll never make it home, what did I do?
I'm so sorry angel for leaving you this way
I'm so sorry, so sorry but I'm drifting away
Just one small mistake ended my life
I'm sorry I won't be coming home tonight.

SWORD DREAMER

SWORD DREAMER

In the cold snow he begins to make his way
His life will change forever on this day
Just a normal everyday person until the Vikings came
They called him to the pier by calling his name
Ivar the Boneless stood there before his eyes
With Erik the Red and others standing at his side
Was he truly worthy of the warrior's call?
He stared in amazement as he looked at them all
A longship floated in the ocean, ready to set sail
Is the Sword Dreamer worthy to begin a new tale?
He dreams of the past and it comes to life
Just like they came to him on this snowy night
The brothers across the sea came to see if he's worthy
Just an average daydreamer from the woods of Jersey
He's handed a sword with his name written in runes
His name will be written in the stars very soon
With the legends of the past now in Valhall
He will get to see them, one and all
He is now Urso Shieldcrusher, he is a Viking reborn
Linked to the ancient brothers in the cold he feels so warm
He makes his way on as he accepts his fate
He doesn't know what else he will face
He gets on the ship and who knows knows what will unfold
As they sail off to have adventures untold.

THE SON OF THE SEA AND THE GODDESS IN THE MOONLIGHT

THE SON OF THE SEA AND THE GODDESS IN THE MOONLIGHT

As she came down the stairs and the moon shone upon her face
I realized that I wouldn't want to be any other place
Her dress made her look like a living goddess
Who could sell water to a drawing man honest
In the middle of the village there were people all around
But at this moment it was just me and her, no other sound
The festival was still going on but only she mattered
And then I knew that my wall had been shattered
The wall that I kept from falling for someone is now gone
I started in amazement as the festival music went on
I'm a nobody, she would never notice a nobody like me
I'm just a lonely ocean born, just a son of the sea
But as she moves, the world moves with this angel of light
For her love, I would take on darkness itself in a fight
If she were my queen I would fight darkness itself to see her smile
And any pain I would feel would be gone for a while
We could be together as we took off and set sail
To lands unknown as I shipped my spices and ale
With her by my side I could face the worst storm
And on the coldest nights her love would keep me warm
I would face deadly ice dragons for one simple kiss
There can't be another woman more lovelier than this
But who am I kidding, my mistress is the ocean itself
I lonely man who is destined to be by himself
But if this vision in the moonlight were ever to come true
I would be the happiest man in this realm, all because of you.

IF I WAS THAT WARRIOR IN MY DREAMS

If I WAS THAT WARRIOR IN MY DREAMS

If I was the warrior in these dreams that seem real
I would tell you about the way I feel
To let you know that there is someone who cares
But I'm too shy to speak so u wouldn't dare

If I was the warrior carrying a golden sword
I would be brave enough to tell you these words
Instead of writing then down on a piece of paper
But maybe I will, someday, sometime later

If I was the warrior that I wish I could be
I wouldn't be so nervous when you talk to me
And stutter and mumble like an incoherent fool
I wish I wasn't this way and could keep my cool

I'm not that warrior that could be so bold
I should tell this all to you if the truth is told
But instead I'm writing this when you're only 50 feet away
I guess I'll be putting it off for one more day.

FINISHING LAST

FINISHING LAST

I won't disrespect you like others at work
I won't hit on you and use pick up lines like a jerk
I treat you like a human being and don't act like an ass
But of course as always I'm finishing last

I'm not whistling at you as you walk the street
I don't stare at you like you're a piece of meat
I treat you like a gentleman from many years past
But as usual, I'm finishing last

I don't yell: "Hey baby, what's your name?"
Or become aggressive, that would just be lame
I do the right thing and always get looked past
That's the story of my life, I'm always finishing last.

CHILDREN OF THE STARS

CHILDREN OF THE STARS

Stars exploded so that we can live
Life that we all take for granted
We always take instead of give
But life is like a dream enchanted
Billions of light years beyond comprehension
Life like ours is probably out there
Just like us in the galaxies we love to mention
They live like us and die like us
Feel pain and suffering and sometimes cry
Just as fragile as us when it comes to trust
And maybe they too gaze at the sky
And look at our galaxy and wonder what's there
What could be beyond the world that they know
As they shiver in their cold climate air
Watching the universe's nightly light show
Realizing that they're children of the stars too......

THE NIGHTFALL OF HOPE AND SUNSHINE

THE NIGHTFALL OF HOPE AND SUNSHINE

I had a smile on my face, now it's gone
Now I get to hear you go on and on
You have broken down another part of me
You cause nothing but pain, can't you see
I was smiling, I was just beginning to recover
And you come back just to start it all over
Goodbye good times, welcome back bad
There goes the freedom that I once had
I'm a slave to sadness once again because of you
Because you just don't understand when I say we're through
I guess you just want to see me in misery
Darkness and clouds will be my legacy and history
I guess I was stupid for thinking things would get better
I'll always be the loser with a higher capital letter
Sometimes I wonder why I bother with anything at all
Life is just a dark castle as I roam it's blackened halls
Everything was fine until you came along once again
But I knew the sunlight would come to an end
Here comes nightfall, I embrace the shadows
The cold feelings come back and chill me to the marrow
But I know this feeling, I know it all too well
Stuck once again in my own personal he'll.

THE SILENT SNOW OF DOVORIA

THE SILENT SNOW OF DOVORIA

In the smallest kingdoms of the eleven
Snow falls heavy, blinding your sight
The the white silence it brings seems like heaven
To many on this cold morning's light
Everyone's out and the people are on the streets
Vendors are still selling their spiced meats and pies
And they still smile at everyone they meet
While others stay warm inside
People move slowly through the drifts of snow
As the wind blows the snow around
The jugglers are still entertaining with a glow
As they put on a show between the mounds
Castle Vorgamar is silent as Queen Vorgamar looks outside
The King is also silent, lost in his world of books
The guards of the gate still stand tall with pride
As the snow falls, there is never a change in their looks
The snow continues to fall, who knows when it will end
It has been this way here for days
Until then, Dovoria will continue in its trend
To still continue in their normal ways.

WHEN KINGDOMS FALL (THE BEGINNING ALL OVER AGAIN)

WHEN KINGDOMS FALL (THE BEGINNING ALL OVER AGAIN)

Dorian's in darkness, he seems to fall forever
Is the world gone and everything turned to midnight?
He knows nothing as he searches out in this endeavour
But the pain cuts through his body like a knife
He finally hits something solid with a loud thud
Then after that he could see nothing but stars
The universe itself is before him, what is and what was
He then sees El-Kyria, who is riddled with scars
He looks down as the stone is glowing in his hand
He now controls the power of time and space
El-Kyria sees what happened and struggles to stand
A look of pure horror is ingrained on his face
"I see you now have the power of the stone"
"Do you know the power that you have inside?"
"Let's join forces and make this universe our home"
"We could rule galaxies far and wide"
"Just think of the people who will fall to your feet"
"And will heed every word that you command"
"There will be no challenge that you will meet"
"No one will dare resist your hand"
Dorian knows what he must do now
Despite he has infinite power
He looks at the stone and he knows how
To control everything at this hour
The stone glowed brighter than a star's supernova
As El-Kyria let out a deafening scream
White hot magic ripped through him and his life was over
He will become a mere nightmare in a child's dream
In the flash of an eye the world flooded back in
And there Dorian was, back in the throne room
With the stone in his hand, the age of light begins
Galderissia didn't come to it's doom
The Steel Riders are defeated, their bodies lie in heaps
The clouds roll away as the world begins to heal
Elania comes for him, running in leaps
She's his dream, he just wonders if this is all real
She gives him a kiss and his knees grow weak
It was the way Elania always made him feel
He looks in her beautiful eyes, not knowing what to speak
As knights run to him and kneel.
Now bonded to the stone he shall protect it for life
And so will those in his line who come after him
He became a powerful wizard, it was his by right
It seems so much for Dorian to take in
He looks through a window as the birds chirp outside
As they take off and fly in the cool, gentle wind
What will happen next for them, only the universe knows
But this story will be known for those big and small
Of the mighty power that Dorian now holds
As he heard and answered the stone's call.

WHEN KINGDOMS FALL (THE BATTLE BETWEEN WORLDS)

WHEN KINGDOMS FALL (THE BATTLE BETWEEN WORLDS)

"Now here we are Dorian, the battle begins"
Says El-Kyria with a voice of pure malice
Dorian has no idea of what battle he's in
It could possibly tear up the entire palace
Energy bursts from El-Kyria hands
Black death coming in the form of magic
But Dorian makes the blue aura expand
So the ending  didn’t become tragic
The colliding of magic tears the world apart
And now they’re stuck between darkness and light
Dorian can feel the fast beating of his heart
As he knows that he’s fighting for his life
And there it is, the battle for the ultimate prize
As the stone is suspended right in the air
So much power contained despite its size
Dorian makes a run towards it right then and there
El-Kyria sees what he’s doing so he does the same
It’s a race to see who will reach the stone first
Both have the magic and they can both claim
The power within and begin its new birth
They both grab the stone right at the same time
And now they both are in a world of pain
Not a pain of the body but a pain in the mind
A shattering of shards of glass inside their brains
The pain is so intense, they can barely breathe
Dorian begins to pass out, he can’t hold on
His vision is blurry, he’s struggling to see
And then, just like that, everything is gone
No more light, all he can see is endless dark
He doesn’t even know if he’s alive anymore
Will light reign, or will darkness start
Who knows in this endless war?

WHEN KINGDOMS FALL (ON THE EDGE OF ETERNAL DARKNESS)

WHEN KINGDOMS FALL (ON THE EDGE OF ETERNAL DARKNESS)

The stone calls him as he strides into the castle
His eyes are full of blazing hate
There’s no need to worry for any kind of hassle
Because their life he would take
The endless darkness surges through him
He glows with essence of Blackfire
The light in the universe is now growing dim
And the times are now very dire
In midst of all the fighting he parts his way through
No one would dare give him a fight
He would have destroyed them if anyone dared to
His heart is as black as night
None of the matter, he only cares for one thing
To hold the stone so he can get revenge
He’ll never forget the day they took his ring
He was human once but not anymore
The real El-Kyria died many years ago
When he found dark magic and began to explore
The ancient arts and his hate began to grow
He strolls into the throne room, his goal is at hand
He looks around and sees what he's looking for
The black aura around hum begins to expand
Light won't shine in this world anymore
He takes a few steps when Dorian comes into the room
The blue aura of light is surrounding his body
El-Kyria turns around, and yells ancient words of doom
"Galderissia's Stone is mine and no one will stop me!"
Two different sides of magic suddenly collide
The final battle for the stone has now begun
If El-Kyria wins, all light in this world will die
And no more will anyone ever see the sun
An eternity of night and the dark creatures will rise
As the Steel Riders enslave all men
From this evil no one will be able to hide
Misery will become everyone's friend
Dorian is preparing for the biggest battle of his life
The ancient ways of wizards now come to his mind
The final fight for life and on the edge of eternal night
Either way, things will be changed until the end of time

WHEN KINGDOMS FALL (THE STONE CALLS)

WHEN KINGDOMS FALL (THE STONE CALLS)

It glows and pulses like a stone heartbeat
The stone created by powerful wizards
The magic that stood for good will fall at evil's feet
That will start the darkness that will start with blizzards
Not used in thousands of years it begs to be used
The stone that formed mountains and split up lands
But in the hands of evil that power will be abused
And kingdoms will be wiped out from where they stand
The stone has no feelings, nor does it care at all
It just sits and waits to have its power released
But one the ones who are worthy will hear the call
And fulfill the stone's wants and needs
Deep inside the castle in the queen's treasure room
It has lied here for hundreds of years
Ever since Tamarosa had its day of doom
The stone named after this Kingdom has been here
Right under a compartment in the throne room
Dorian hears the call as he's fighting the Steel Riders
With his love Elania as they fight for their lives
The waves of them are endless as they ride powerful Destriers
But he still hears the call from inside
An ancient power that came from his family line
A power he never used or even knew he had
Is surging inside his very soul
A descendent from the first wizard Donarius Narrad
This story he was never told
The power lied asleep but now it has awoken
Along with the calling of the stone
But now the flow of magic has burst wide open
And it's slowly becoming his own
He feels the raging surge, but he has to keep control
One mistake now would mean certain death at the end of dark steel
A death would be slow, painful and ice cold
But the surge of magic seems like the only thing he can feel
The Stone pulses more and the call turns into a scream
The stone is so close to releasing its incredible power
It could be the darkest nightmare or the sweetest dream
As the fate hangs on for all in this, the deadliest hour.

WHEN KINGDOMS FALL (DORIAN AND ELANIA'S FIGHT)

WHEN KINGDOMS FALL (DORIAN AND ELANIA'S FIGHT)

When all hope is lost, I'll still be there
When you're down and crippled by fear
I'll pick you up and dry your tears
I have loved you for years
And I'm here for you at this time
You're the only one for me in my mind
Enemies are closing in, there's no way to escape
I'll stay with you, no matter what our fate
We shall fight them with our strength together
You have my heart and will have it forever
Nothing matters as long as your by my side
If we lose this battle and here is where we die
My last breath will still be expressing my love
As we both transcend to the stars above
All I ask is one last kiss to take away with me
If we fall here and my spirit is set free
I'm glad love gave me a chance to find someone like you
The Light knows there's nothing I wouldn't do
To keep you safe and free from this harm
You are my fire and ice as we walk arm in arm
I am the steel and you are the magic
Let's hope that this battle won't end tragic
The kingdoms are falling, this could be the end
The end for all our families and friends
Here they come, the Riders fill the hall
And now begins the battle for one and all
I need one last look into your heavenly eyes
Be with me, my love as we fight side by side.
