Dynasty Of Darkness Lyrics

[THE END OF AN EPOCH]
A dynasty had grown
From such a simple thing
Many have tried to own
What only death can bring
What started out as good
Corrupted over time
Some perished where they stood
Others began to climb
Possess all you can
Is the folly of man
You cannot break free
From this dark dynasty
[Chorus]
Descend the long stair
That leads to nowhere
There's no turning back
You can't cry it's unfair
Can't stop what's begun
There's nowhere to run
It can't be undone
Young Helmut learned too late Who he should not believe
A child's faith is great
So easy to deceive
He's just another limb
A twisted family tree
Free to prune or trim
To serve another's need
[Chorus]
If vengeance is your guide
You're lost before you leave
If power is your bride
Your lover will deceive
A lesson learned too late
Is not to learn at all
To choose a hated fate
To become hatreds' thrall
An eye for an eye
Until everyone's blind
You cannot break free
From this dark dynasty
[Chorus]
