Death Lends the Ultimate Touch

Smile benevolently
Stalking our paths of sorcery
Forever left behind the ordinary
A new life to survive, it was absolutely necessary
That knowledge is a frightening affair
That death is the irreplaceable partner
And whatever is touched by death becomes power
That knowledge becomes power
If death is its central force
Death lends the ultimate touch

With patience and will
We build what it is we want
No time for retreat or regret
We work for patience and will

Everything by becoming nothing
Knowing death is stalking
Won’t give us time to cling. To anything
So we use all of everything

With patience and will
We build what it is we want
No time for retreat or regret
We work for patience and will
Will is what will make us succeed
When our thoughts spell our defeat
Will is what makes us invulnerable
The true link between man and the world
No longer time for regrets
Or recriminations
Decisions are final
Death sits with us
Death advises
In mysterious ways
How to choose
And the warrior waits
