Night Over Dark or
Lucifer's Fall
The pale moon cast a flinty glow; Ragged, harshly on the land below.
There were firestorms in the east, an earthly taste of hell; Shattering the night's repose when Satan nearly fell.
That famous battle is legend here; I still can feel the hate and fear.
If you chance to listen closely, try not to dismay; It's just the echoes of the fallen ones, fighting one more day....
This war has raged down through the ages; and told in whispers by sooths and sages.
Though its origin remains unclear, of one thing I am certain; The fate of man hangs in the balance though neither side can win.
I'm forced to watch despite my pain; While metal clashes and arrows reign.
The hordes of hell launch a swift attack, inflicting pain their pleasure; When Michael suddenly appears, a shining sword his treasure.
Forged by a god at the dawn of time; For felling demons - Is that a crime?
A bright blue flame engulfs its blade, reflected in his eyes; He smiles grimly and demons scream but there'll be no compromise.
A trumpet blast shakes the earth; The seeds of victory given birth.
The men of light rise up in fury and sense the conquest near; The earth cracks open and demons wail and die in mortal fear.
The ground provides a timeless tomb, where escape is not an option; The hordes of hell forever doomed, payment for their action.
Michael squints and views the fields of broken bodies, swords and shields.
A single tear rolls down his cheek but pity's not his way; Gabriel then arrives to say they've won the day.
I watch a glowing sphere appear - Satan roars, his end is near.
But the portal takes him to safe haven, if such can be found; Michael looks up at me screaming and drives his sword into the ground.
While Ilblis looks for a place to hide, I must continue my westward glide.
Who am I - you might ask - some wayward heirarch?
An eternal guardian who's ever watchful,
I am Night Over Dark.
