Incantations Of The Apprentice

Symphony X

Through eerie reach of ancient woods

where lumbering mists arise

I journey for nines moons of the year

to where a land of legend lies



Deep within a stony lamp-lit hall

under falling grains of sand

Magic eyes glance magic pages

turned by magic hands



And as he spoke I watched in awe

A God's aura in his eyes

Master of all



Darkness fall - Spirits arise

Lord of Storms - Blacken the skies



With heavy breath, I break the seal

howls echo through the room

Blood lettings of a black Raven's heart

Conjure up the wraiths of doom



I cannot heed my Master's call

Lakes of Fire - writhe and swell

Foolish eyes - while spying Prophet's pages

unleash Barons of Hell



And as they rose I watched in awe

A God's aura in my eyes

Master of all



Darkness fall - Spirits arise

Lord of Storms - Blacken the skies
