Corrupted Shores Lyrics

So much danger left behind
And more still yet to come
I felt the islands gaze upon me
And so it had begun

But the isle would oppose me
From rock to earth to bough to leaf

"I stand here on the threshold
A sword shall be reclaimed
I scream defiance to the heavens
Beneath skies of burning flame"

Malevolence looked down on me
And met my steely gaze
And branches sought to claim me
In a thousand different ways

The lady danced through light and shade
As evil on the darkness preyed

[Solo: Jensen]

Dark rents in the earth did open wide
And black water rose in a sickening tide
Creatures arose, that once had died
But all these things I swept aside

At last we reached the summit of this poisoned land
I fell down on my knees and dug into the sand

And there I found an ancient blade that sang within my veins
And with the very deftest touch it cut the air in twain
