Let them hear the sound!- [Instrumental] [The Narrator (Aaron Weiss):] [Speaking] The seed had been sown. Now the evil would grow...his keen young veins were ripe for this aim. So Ahrima set forth to use the lamps as a torch, and with everyone around, he tore them to the ground! And suddenly, without warning, their creation was burning! Their design, ignited! All that hard work, slighted! So Toba the Tura was sent to Hold Ahrima responsible for his mess, to ban him to this fiery abyss! While the remaining found a new place to live.

Ive Got A Witch Mad At Me And You Could Get Into Trouble - Forgive Durden (Lyrics) iSheikah 2010-03-29 | Track #10 Title: "I've Got A Witch Mad At Me And You Could Get Into Trouble" Album: Wonderland Artist: Forgive Durden LYRICS: Consider this your fair warning. There's no turning back now. You're leaving your Blanket of cleansed gospel For the smut of vicious truth. You won't need your own wool coat Because out there the sun beats through. So interlock your fingers with mine And squeeze tight. Stay close behind. We haven't much time So I'll cut to the quick. We'll burn the midnight oil. The sun will peek into our windows And be surprised to find empty beds, Walls naked, our closets stripped Of all its threads. We will awake in a new world. Our own island. This floating mass. A jagged slab. Where bulbs burn for us until the end. When dawn arrives We'll be ten drinks deep. If we can fight off turning horizontal, We'll explore our new home And find similarities at every turn. No matter how far we go It's all a fragment of a whole. Even it all locks are keyed Or calloused become our feet. No matter how far we go There's no escaping the glow. We'll take our seats at the throne. Wonderland is now our home.

Let me know if you have any requests for any other songs/albums you'd like to see :) LYRICS: [Doctor Dumaya (Shawn Harris):] [Speaking:] Hahaha! Spiders, c'mere! Hahaha! [Coughing] Who's there? Someone's here! [Singing] Welcome to my humble abode, Please don't mind the mess, Just nest yourself down comfortable, Let the doctor do the rest... Dear ghost, you look white as a sheet, Just have yourself a seat. Open wide and say 'ah!' Let the doctor take a peek! Now I must admit I knew you'd come, Boy it is love, Elope to save her from disease, Wash your hands of her blood! I don't want to alarm you, But you certainly are ill! Stricken with a sickness, Deadly enough to kill! Even the strongest man Would drop dead where he stands! I urge that we make haste, If we stand a chance.... [Speaking] Spiders...scalpel! Forceps! Hope's breath, Just a pinch, now, spiders, just a pinch!... Hahaha! That was too much! [Singing] Now what you got ain't no quick fix, It ain't no common cold. What you need's a bonafied Doctor's miracle. Now the thing about miracles Is that they don't grow on trees, They don't fall from the sky, You need a doctor like me! [Speaking] It just ain't easy... [Singing] Lucky for you, you found me! So The rest should be no fuss. But before we get to savin' lives, There's a few things to discuss. Now I'm sure you're wonderin', "What's in it for me?" Surely I would not perform These miracles for free! I'm not askin' for a lot! It won't cost you a dime! I just want the princess here with me, 'till the end of time! (HAHAHHAHA!) I promise to take care of her... More rather, she'll take care of me! The rest of her life in the dark, fulfilling Doctor's fantasies! [Princess Anhura (Greta Salpeter):] I can't do this... [Doctor Dumaya (Shawn Harris):] But you must, Princess! [Princess Anhura (Greta Salpeter):] Sign my life away...? [Doctor Dumaya (Shawn Harris):] It's the only way! Trust me, I know, How this must go!... Just do what the doctor says... [Brief Instrumental] [The Narrator (Aaron Weiss):] [Speaking] He mixed elixirs and filters, Pried scrolls and read excerpts. He spoke in foreign phonetics And read runes from ancient relics, Stirred ointments with potions, and Functions with doses. He whisked it until smoke rose and Seeped into her nose! The illness had relinquished. The doctor had fixed it, The cleansing accomplished. Their love was free to flourish. But before it could sink in, The front door was kicked in! Standing in its place was Pallis! Driven by malice, he had barged in To challenge Adakias! To prove their love! Their word wouldn't be enough... Pallis needed it in blood.

Let me know if you have any requests for any other songs/albums you'd like to see :) LYRICS: [Baruka Bawaba] Please take a seat. Let me tell you both a tale of love and hope. It's a story that you may have heard before, told as mythical lore. But this translation is clear, unlike the embellishments that have reached your ears. There was a boy who shared your bones, your eager blood, your affinity for love. He had it all in his hands, and he watched it all turn to sand. [Adakias] If this boy they speak of sincerely sits atop my family tree, Then I was truly meant to leave the Dark, Down this path set out in front of me. I will reunite this world's divided halves. Fulfill my history. This is more than divine decree, it's my destiny. [Baba Bawaba] Digging 'round the deep, only missing out on sleep. Chasing 'bout my head like the wolf that found the sheep. Don't go digging 'round there, you be slipping bit too much. Milling muck and mud with the mind that lost its touch. I been traveling 'bout in time, never stepping out for much. Deepest of the deep with the wolf that lost those sheep. Because it's more than a little but less than a bunch, Found their way around with the blind that lost its touch. [Bawaba Brothers] The choices he made that day to burn down the world he'd helped create. Don't be scared, kid. You're gifted. Follow this stream, and live out that prophecy. Watch out for the wicked ones who call themselves beloved ones. Beware of the medicine before you lay your head again. Watch out for the wicked ones who call themselves beloved ones. [Narration] So they arrived at the doctor's camp, his crude shack. A shanty with walls of broken glass, Light leaking through the shattered cracks. And through he was cordial, the young couple was doubtful. [Adakias] If this boy they speak of sincerely sits atop my family tree, I was truly meant to leave the dark down this path set out in front of me. [Narration] ... for the longshoremen had warned them to keep a close eye on their adored ones. But they had journeyed for a reason, they were here for the medicine. To cure the infection. But nothing could prepare him for the events that would ensnare them. All he could do is trust what he knew. He would listen to his gut and live for his love. Rate, comment, listen and enjoy!

Let me know if you have any requests for any other songs/albums you'd like to see :) LYRICS: [Pallis (played by Brendon Urie):] I've been tracing your steps along with your dainty, exquisite guest. Across mountain land and serpentine seas, these two have been on quite an odyssey. You're a fool to think this princess could ever really love a couple of poor boys like us. She requires riches, recherche, riding with rodomontading roues. [Adakias (played by Thomas Dutton):] Casanovas have charmed with chiffons, so chichi. Chased her with their conceited coteries. She's been propositioned, propounded, by every pompous prince, Given panas of Peleus pairs, (?). [Princess Anhura (played by Greta Salpeter):] I've been seduced with shimmering, sparkling, stones, Squired by rulers' sizable chateaus. [Adakias (played by Thomas Dutton):] And I'm the one she chose! [Pallis (played by Brendon Urie):] I understand how you can love a man of true soul. Why don't you just ask him where he spent his youth? O, look at her face! She really doesn't see that you are from the dark And you've been lying through your teeth. [Adakias (played by Thomas Dutton):] Anhura, please listen, I really can explain. I meant to tell you sooner, it's been gnawing at my brain. Now you know the truth, but that knowledge Shouldn't change the nature of our love; We've broken through the chains. [Pallis (played by Brendon Urie):] I'm sure that she would care to hear your acumen As to how your presence is the reason she is sick. But I suppose it's in vain since her life is ending, When I thrust this blade into her heart athumping! [Adakias (played by Thomas Dutton):] Brother, NO! [Pallis (played by Brendon Urie):] Brother, what have I done? My blade has pierced your side. This was never my intent, O God, please stay alive! [Adakias (played by Thomas Dutton):] Dear Pallis, you're my brother, you've tried to protect me. But your dagger's edge found in my flesh, it truly was my destiny. [Pallis (played by Brendon Urie):] Brother, I was shortsighted. I ignored your cries. You really are the chosen one, the calculated sacrifice! [Adakias (played by Thomas Dutton):] Please listen to my last words, before I fade away. This is my gift to you: live for your love every day. [Pallis (played by Brendon Urie):] Please don't let your tired heart stop beating. You're breathing. Just keep breathing. [Heart beats.] [Adakias (played by Thomas Dutton):] You will take care of this spinning sphere I'll disappear and stay away from you. Place your hand on mine, one last time, and kiss me goodbye. Take the love inside my mind, before I die. Place your hand on mine, one last time, and kiss me goodbye. Take the love inside my mind, before I die. Please don't cry. [The Narrator (played by Aaron Weiss)] The mountains seceded. The light and dark depleted. We lost Adakias, but regained our science. Our world was finally reunited. So this is my cue of where to leave you. Now it's your story to retell and pass on. Because an idea is only relevant if it's being thought upon. So remember, never surrender. 'Cause the unrelenting constancy of love and hope Will rescue and restore from any scope Rate, comment, listen and enjoy!

Let me know if you have any requests for any other songs/albums you'd like to see :) LYRICS: [King Malka (played by Nic Newsham):] So you're the boy I've heard so much about from my daughter's open mouth? She's described for me wild fantasies of true love and ancient prophecies. Did you think you could waltz right and steal? (The princess for yourself...) Seducing her with empty dreams and a rusting ring? Well I'm the king It won't be that easy. [Anhura (played by Greta Salpeter):] Father, you don't understand... [Adakias (played by Thomas Dutton):] I'm not after your throne or jewels. [Anhura (played by Greta Salpeter):] We can justify demands... [Adakias (played by Thomas Dutton):] Not looking for a crown or holiness. [Anhura (played by Greta Salpeter):] Father, don't you understand? [Adakias (played by Thomas Dutton):] I just want your daughter's heart, you fool. [Anhura (played by Greta Salpeter):] You can hold onto my hand, cause I have found my man. [King Malka (played by Nic Newsham):] Daugher, my dear, please open both your ears. There is something not right here. I can't place my finger on it, But this young man is filled with darkness. Did you think I'd just sit back and let this slide? (You are mistaken!) I will surely not give up without a fight. 'Cause I'm the king. It won't be that easy. [Anhura (played by Greta Salpeter):] Father, you don't understand... [Adakias (played by Thomas Dutton):] I'm not after your throne or jewels. [Anhura (played by Greta Salpeter):] We can justify demands... [Adakias (played by Thomas Dutton):] Not looking for a crown or holiness. [Anhura (played by Greta Salpeter):] Father, don't you understand? [Adakias (played by Thomas Dutton):] I just want your daughter's heart, you fool. [Anhura (played by Greta Salpeter):] You can hold onto my hand, cause I have found my man. [Adakias (played by Thomas Dutton):] Please, sir, let me say something on my behalf. I love your daughter and she, she loves me back. All we have is love, my King, so let's sing la da da da. All we have is love, my King, so let's sing la da da da. All we have is love, my King, so let's sing la da da da. All we have is love, my King, let's sing. [Aaron Weiss (playing the Narrator):] Denied by the king and his greed, The pair would indeed be married in secrecy. But before they had agreed when and where to meet, The princess felt queasy and weak, could barely speak. Adakias knew instantly why she was so green And what had caused the disease. It was his proximity. She was ill from his company. Evils ubiquity. You can't run from your history. Your past will seek you endlessly. He knew the only remedy to her viral malady resided And abided on the opposite side of the petrous Levy and its harsh, barbed, concrete peak. So while avoiding the leak of his true identity, Adakias convinced the princess of their leave. They would meet with a specialist and rid her blood of this. He kissed her on the lips and assured her a life-long live. Rate, comment, listen and enjoy!

Let me know if you have any requests for any other songs/albums you'd like to see :) LYRICS: [Thomas Dutton (playing Adakias):] It seems to me like every star agreed to meet Right over our heads tonight to fix there bright. [Greta Salpeter (playing Anhura):] The light collects in your eyes, turns and reflects, jumps into mine. I'm a slave to the sign. [Thomas Dutton (playing Adakias):] My hands shake, our minds race from the thought of love. Yet we curb our speech because words are not enough To wedge this instant, burn this moment into our memory. Let go, take my hand and trust in me. Anhura, can't you see, that we were meant to be? It's true love, it's true love... It's true love, it's true love... [Greta Salpeter (playing Anhura):] I admit I would guess your touch could Fill me with such thoughts to marry you, have your babies too. Is it too good to be true? [Thomas Dutton (playing Adakias):] I can't let her learn about my past. If she found out where I came from, she'd turn so fast. And not look back, I can't go back, I just won't go back! [Greta Salpeter (playing Anhura):] I can't slow down, I'm scared I'm falling too fast. Adakias can't you see that I'm your first kiss? [Thomas Dutton and Greta Salpeter (playing Adakias and Anhura):] We were meant to be! [Thomas Dutton (playing Adakias):] Don't you ever feel like you've been destined for something bigger than your skin? [Greta Salpeter (playing Anhura):] Don't you ever feel like you've been destined for something bigger than your skin?

It's true love, it's true love... [Aaron Weiss (playing the Narrator):] Love was everywhere. You could taste it in the air. The couple was eager to trade vows, to float away, and settle down. But first, Adakias had to meet Anhura's father, His Majesty, the one and only, His Royal Highness. The King. He had to kiss his jeweled fist and bow to the crown, Kneeling on the ground. He would propound to become her prince. Rate, comment, listen and enjoy!

Let me know if you have any requests for any other songs/albums you'd like to see :) LYRICS: Look at that which surrounds me I'm supposed to call this home The dark has become so overwhelming So why don't I just go Why can't you just be more like your brother? Together you would rule the throne Evil and darkness would grow This kingdom needs you Why can't you just be more like Palis? they always ask Could this feeling deep in me be the prophecy? As a child I heard such wonderful stories Of lamps, and the oracle, and holy the sea Silly boy, you speak of fiction Silly boy, you can't just leave them Reaching for some fairy tale ending Myth or legend Oh, whats the use maybe they're right Whats the point of dreaming If it can never materialize? Townsfolk are ashamed Why can't I live up to my family name? Well it's not me, but you see it's just my pedigree You're a reckless and romantic rogue Your head is in the clouds You'll be chained here all your life Shackled to the ground You're not the chosen one Don't you ever dream of some place better Or a life thats greater Don't you ever feel like youve been destined For something bigger than your skin? You are so foolish The dark has been your home If you elope, Ill hunt you Through suffering youll atone Dear Palis, you're my brother You looked and watched over me But theres something bigger at stake My purpose is this journey Brother, you are shortsighted Naive and starry-eyed You are not the chosen one This will be your demise Brother, I can't help this feeling My heart tells me to run You were meant to rule the dark I was meant to see the sun Dont you ever dream of some place better When the light shines brighter? Don't you ever feel like youve been destined For something bigger than your skin? I think I'll just go [Narrator:] "Adakias, tired of fiction and bound by his ambition Left his home for the city of light Disguised as a citizen his identity was hidden Within in a city that sat glistening He was eager for his new life He contemplated and hated Why had he waited for so long to flee his home forever shaded, where the jaded are never wrong? He took a deep breath He was finally gone His hope was left strong That a meaning would be found That had kept him withdrawn His stare had caught a light And he fell for the sight Her name was Princess Anhura She suffered from the same strife And like Adakias, she spent most of her time Dreaming of a different life."

Danny Stevens) From "Razia's Shadow: A Musical" by Forgive Durden, uploaded for everyone to enjoy! Let me know if you have any requests for any other songs/albums you'd like to see :) LYRICS: [Gargul the Oracle] What a tragic mess you fools have made of this. The soul's filled with vacancy. You've spoiled all the crops and seed. This was a birth, a gift. You daftly wasted it. The dust and dirt will stain your fists. You can't escape your own skin. [Ahrima] Every creation is plucked from a boundless hole of perception, Doomed to endure flaws of its fountain. The boy will one day cross the mountains. [Gargul the Oracle] And reunite this world's divided halves, fulfill their history. This is more than divine decree, it's his destiny. [Angels] So please take heed of this prophecy. Lifetimes from now there will be two chosen, bound to meet. Inside her lock he will turn the key. Their love will be strong enough to erase all the wrong we've done, Return us to where we belong, with the Light and Dark as one. [Gargul the Oracle] One day the strands will mend. All the torn seams and frayed ends will turn to one single thread. The cycle will begin. The choices he made that day, to burn down what he'd helped create. You have made this bed, now you must sleep in it. [Ahrima] Every creation is plucked from a boundless hole of perception, Doomed to endure flaws of its fountain. The boy will one day cross the mountains. [Gargul the Oracle] And reunite this world's divided halves, fulfill their history. This is more than divine decree, it's his destiny. [Nidria] So take heed of this prophecy. Lifetimes from now there will be two chosen, bound to meet. In her lock he'll turn the key. [Nidria & Ahrima] Their true love will be strong enough. [Ahrima] To erase the wrong we've done, the Dark and Light will become one. [Nidria & Ahrima] Their true love will be strong enough. [Ahrima] To erase the wrong we've done, the Dark and Light will become one. What a tragic mess you fools have made of this. [Narration] Time flashed by for the Dark and the Light. The two fragments, recessed, still left unaddressed, stranded in unrest. In the Dark lived two brothers, Adakias, the youngest, and the heir, Pallis. As children, of the lists of myths, their favorite was the narrative Of Holy The Sea And The Divided Terrene. Adakias would always dream of a destiny to leave, of fulfilling the prophecy. But he was laughed at, fitted with an unfavorable grafted cast for a foolish dreamer, A romance seeker. The streets frowned, but deep down he screamed out. He knew there was accuracy in the antiquated legacy. Legitimacy to the famed sea. A quiet certainty to his fated fantasies. Rate, comment, listen and enjoy!

Let me know if you have any requests for any other songs/albums you'd like to see :) LYRICS: [Toba the Tura] So you're Ahrima, collusive dreamer. I watched the lamps fall, you pushed them over. They say you're gifted, well I just see a scared kid. They must have flipped it, your skills are latent. O, you snuffed the glow. Replaced it with coals. Threw away the throne. O, you snuffed the glow. Replaced it with coals. Burnt down my home. You had a life of privilege, hope and love. But now that's all gone. Maybe the design's flawed. So that's why I'm here, to preserve the remainder Of what chance we have left at an existence. O, the desolate dirt. The raw, scorched earth. It's a trophy of your worth. O, the desolate dirt. The raw, scorched earth. It's a scar of my hurt. Your cold, wicked soul boasts a foul scent. [Ahrima] No, a stench. [Toba the Tura] The formidable taste of pure contempt. Every dark corner will soon see the light. [Ahrima] O, so bright. [Toba the Tura] The beaming flood will pour right through the binds. My words will tear through the air, Pierce through the despair, To find your arrogant, throbbing ears. If it's too much to bear, or to hear, Or take, I'll be frank, Let my inflection be crystal clear. This mess that you've made, it's a six-foot grave. It's a home for your lonesome bones that remain. We'll disappear, but you'll stay here to rot As The King of The Dark and Forgot. [Ahrima] What have I done? Please make me your son. What have I become? Destroyed all I love. [Toba the Tura] O, what have you done? Disobedient son, you've broken the trust of your father's love. [Narration] The arid, fallow earth would be Ahrima's new hearth. He would remain while he watched his family strain, And the girl that he loved, vacate to a new place, To state over on fresh terrain. And from his desolate throne he watched them compose A mountainous wall of stone, to separate themselves from him. A massive, jagged barricade to lock themselves in. Theirs would be the Light, his would be the Dark. For a century these halves would wait. One world, set apart. [Ahrima] Place your hand on mine. Untie your mind. We'll just disengage. Float away.

LYRICS: Could this be the day Ive waited for When all my hard work doesnt go ignored? Maybe she was right, the will realize I can change the world open us their eyes They know I am more than some eager blood Not some average bones, I believe in love I just want to prove I deserve this gift I will change the world, maybe this is it I can see it now, all the colors smear Up and down the page, but the shapes are there I will build the lamps in the reverie Then theyll understand this was meant for me This is my fate I can almost hear em say Let the lamps shine Let em burn so bright Open all our eyes Shower us in light Let the lamps shine Let em burn so bright Set the sky ablaze Fill the night with paint Smother all the shade flood it through my blood Breathe it through my lungs Give us all your love They know I am more than some eager blood Not some average bones, I believe in love I just want to prove I deserve this gift I will change the world, maybe this is it I can see it now floating like a dream Right above my head, perfect symmetry Lives in harmony, I can see his face When he sees the lamps, I can hear em say Let the lamps shine Let em burn so bright Open all our eyes Shower us in light Let the lamps shine Let em burn so bright Set the sky ablaze Fill the night with paint Smother all the shade flood it through my blood Breathe it through my lungs Give us all your love Dream with your eyes closed Try and pluck the pearls from your bones All the plans pirouette right through my mind become set The lines become definite, glowing hues fill this vignette Tall and proud, the lamps will stand built from these two very hands No one will be able to deny my skill our love for you Dream with your eyes closed Try and pluck the pearls from your bones Let the lamps shine Open all our eyes Shower us in light Let the lamps shine Let em burn so bright Set the sky ablaze Fill the night with paint Smother all the shade flood it through my blood Breathe it through my lungs Give us all your love You cant change me You cant hide me [Narrator:] The vision of the world had been realized But the sculpture of the Earth was looked upon by jealous eyes Ahrima refused to relent, he demanded to be heard Let my unique deft hands be known he asserted But even this brash avowel was met in return by no mouth full O simply just smiled So defeated and galled, Ahrima headed for the darkness No one seemed to understand Only the shadows would hearken He sat in peace but on his shoulder, at rest, perched a dainty brownish spider named Barayas Rate, comment, listen and enjoy!
Track 2 - The Missing Piece (feat. Lizzie Huffman) - Forgive Durden iSheikah 2010-03-22 | Track #2: The Missing Piece (feat. Lizzie Huffman) From "Razia's Shadow: A Musical" by Forgive Durden, uploaded for everyone to enjoy! Let me know if you have any requests for any other songs/albums you'd like to see :) LYRICS: [Ahrima (played by Thomas Dutton)] What a splendid mess! O the Scientist, and his Genesis. He overlooks my gift and then I think She's the only who knows what I could have done. I must be patient. They will realize what I know inside. I was meant to lead this world to greater things; It's my destiny. Everything seems to fade when I see her face. The sky and trees all blur everytime I look at her! Nobody understood me till her eyes fixed upon me. My puzzle life's complete, now that I've found the missing piece! [Nidria (played by Lizzie Huffman)] Don't you worry, boy, it's a waste of time. Place your hand on mine, untie your mind. We'll just float away into the day. You're not the only one who thinks they're falling in love. You must be patient. They will realize what I see inside. You were meant to lead this world to greater things; It's your destiny. [Ahrima (played by Thomas Dutton)] Everything seems to fade when I see her face. The sky and trees all blur everytime I look at her! Nobody understood me till her eyes fixed upon me. My puzzle life's complete, now that I've found the missing piece! O, you're the meaning! Nidria, please listen, I'd like to explain. I should have told you sooner, it's been gnawing at my brain. My mind's in knots, it's got me lost, Please help me through the maze. 'Cause you're the key, the lock turning, The breaking of these chains! [Nidria (played by Lizzie Huffman)] Everything seems to fade when I see his face. It seems all the stars turn down everytime I look at him! Nobody understood me till his eyes fixed upon me. My puzzle life's complete, now that I've found the missing piece! [Ahrima (played by Thomas Dutton)] Everything seems to fade when I see her face. The sky and trees all blur everytime I look at her! Nobody understood me till her eyes fixed upon me. My puzzle life's complete, now that I've found the missing piece! [The Narrator (played by Aaron Weiss)] Ahrima, the most gifted serif, the utmost skilled of the cherubs, He felt his aptitude and slate were being misused. Shamed, he repined this to O the Scientist, Who replied with a calm face...expressionless. [Ahrima (played by Thomas Dutton)] Dream with your eyes closed... Try and pluck the pearl from your bones... Dream with your eyes closed... Try and pluck the pearl from your bones... Rate, comment, listen and enjoy!
Track 1 - Genesis (feat. Casey Crescenzo) - Forgive Durden iSheikah 2010-03-22 | Track #1: Genesis (feat. Casey Crescenzo) From "Razia's Shadow: A Musical" by Forgive Durden, uploaded for everyone to enjoy! Let me know if you have any requests for any other songs/albums you'd like to see :) LYRICS: [Narrator:] This is the beginning and the end. The rise and the fall. Our gait will begin its saunter at the source, when the infant learns to crawl. Place your hand on mine. Untie your mind. Let your bloated brain balloon and float away. Wet the end of the thread. Thimble upon your index. Set the needle on its path, Bobbing up and down and past. Tears and seams all turn to one With every stitch and each spool spun. Feed the line through its eye. Draw it from the other side. Pull the strand to satisfy. The need to compose. The genetic map. The scientific gap. The detailed blueprints. Swept away under carpets. All we did was thread the eye Of the silver splinter. We simply planted the seed And nursed it through the winter. The rest is up to you and what you'll do. To learn and love and laugh Until the cycle circles back I'll just separate, weigh anchor, disengage Divide and disappear. And see you in the mirror. I'm a slave to the night. [Narrator:] O the Scientist was the author and the architect. The angels were His ink slingers, His actors and actresses. His two purest talents were Ahrima and Nidria, two destined hearts, Bound by the same idea; the unrelenting constancy of love and hope Can rescue and restore you from any scope. In her, Ahrima confided his curbing frustration. His gifts had been exhausted. Oh, how they'd misused them. She averted his passion and eased his blood. And so he confessed it to her, he had fallen in love. A slave to your eyes. Rate, comment, listen and enjoy!
