Lyrics
[Verse] I cannot fathom what befalls me A thought comes to me to exalt me and yet, before it forms it vanishes to ether's clouds Oh, how I long for the days of old When schemes brewed dark and bold My mind was sharp as a dagger's edge But now, it's dulled, a barren ledge [Chorus] Where do my plans and plots now hide? Once sharp and keen, now cast aside Like shadows in the dying light I mourn the loss of my dark might [Verse] In youth, I weaved my wicked spells Casting enchantments, ringing bells I danced with glee in the moonlit night With potions potent, dark and right But banished from mind is cruel craft Leaving me with naught but a draft Of what once was a fearsome power Now fleeting like a wilting flower [Chorus] Where do my plans and plots now hide? Once sharp and keen, now cast aside Like shadows in the dying light I mourn the loss of my dark might [Outro]
