Beneath the moon’s pale, silvery glare, Where shadows dance and weave despair, A swift wind carries whispers cold, Of stories dark and ages old. In castle halls where echoes fade, A vampire waits with crimson blade. Eyes that pierce the thickest night, Hungry flame, a dreadful sight. With rage that burns like endless fire, He seeks revenge, his one desire. Against the violent storms of fate, His heart a storm, his wrath innate. The guard of secrets, strong and true, Bows not to fear nor deathly hue. In chambers dark, where dreams decay, He channels energy, fights the fray. Through endless nights, through bitter scars, Beneath the chilling dance of stars, A blade once raised in pure defense, Shall carve his path—his recompense. Thus flows the tale, of dark and bright, Where shadows clash in endless fight. For even when despair holds sway, Hope's ember guards the breaking day.

Nouns Are Here to Stay (To the tune of Lita Ford - Close My Eyes Forever) (Verse 1) I see a book, a cat, a place, A world of nouns, each with a face. From people like Noah, shining bright, To qualities that bring us light. (Chorus) Nouns, oh nouns, you fill my day, Common or proper, you light the way. In every sentence, you find your role, Nouns, sweet nouns, you make me whole. (Verse 2) Collective nouns, a flock takes flight, A team or a class, all in sight. With gerunds too, like yodeling sound, You change the world, you’re all around. (Chorus) Nouns, oh nouns, you fill my day, Common or proper, you light the way. In every sentence, you find your role, Nouns, sweet nouns, you make me whole. (Bridge) Count nouns can be one or more, Mass nouns flow, can’t keep score. Attributive shines, a noun in disguise, With every word, the language flies. (Verse 3) Singular stands, and plurals roam, In every story, you bring us home. From Omaha’s streets to the skies above, Nouns are the words we learn to love. (Chorus) Nouns, oh nouns, you fill my day, Common or proper, you light the way. In every sentence, you find your role, Nouns, sweet nouns, you make me whole. (Outro) So let’s celebrate, the words we say, With nouns in our hearts, we’ll find our way. Together we’ll learn, grow, and play, Nouns are with us, they’re here to stay.

In den Sümpfen von Louisiana, kalt und schwer, Schleicht Sdella wie ein Schatten, lautlos und leer. Das Katana in der Hand, ein schimmernder Stahl, Ein Hauch von Japan, bereit für die Qual. Sdella, oh Sdella, mit dem Katana im Rauch, Deine Klinge zieht eine Spur wie ein Hauch. Mit jedem Schwung, jedem Atem, jedem Schrei, Bist du die Jägerin, die niemals verzeiht. In den Nebeln aus Schreien, wo die Monster erwachen, Steht Sdella mit dem Katana, in tiefsten Schlachten. Ein Schnitt wie ein Flüstern, tödlich und schnell, Sie teilt die Schatten, die Nacht wird grell. Sdella, oh Sdella, mit dem Katana im Rauch, Deine Klinge zieht eine Spur wie ein Hauch. Mit jedem Schwung, jedem Atem, jedem Schrei, Bist du die Jägerin, die niemals verzeiht. Im Mondlicht tanzt sie, die Klinge so fein, Ein Schimmer von Tod, in kaltem Schein. Nicht Kugel, nicht Schuss – Sdellas Klinge regiert, Und der Tod schleicht heran, wenn der Feind erfriert. Sdella, oh Sdella, mit dem Katana im Rauch, Deine Klinge zieht eine Spur wie ein Hauch. Mit jedem Schwung, jedem Atem, jedem Schrei, Bist du die Jägerin, die niemals verzeiht. Und wenn der Tag sich neigt, und die Sümpfe versinken, Bleibt das Echo von Sdellas Katana im Dunst hier blinken. Ein Lied aus Blut und aus Stahl, ein Schicksal so klar, In den Sümpfen von Hunt, bleibt Sdella für immer da.

I see a man all clothed in black robes, ripped and torn, Broken star Having fallen, A light that’s dim and worn.

Sleep Deep, My Lord (A Grave Knight's Lullaby) Verse 1: Sleep deep, my dearest lord and child, Your teacher watches through the night, Though flesh has burned and bones are piled, I guard you till the morning light. (Whispered) Sleep now, sleep now Verse 2: Remember how I taught you well, Your sword arm guided by my hand, Before the dragon's breath that fell, Before my armor turned to sand. (Whispered) Dream now, dream now Refrain: Hush-a-bye, my faithful ward, While shadows creep and crawl, Your wife's soul whispers soft and sweet, From deep within my hall. (Whispered) She's waiting Verse 3: Each time you left me cold and slain, I clawed my way back to your side, Through death and darkness, grief and pain, No grave could hold my twisted pride. (Whispered) Forever watching Final Verse: So sleep beneath your blanket warm, While I drift through your dreams, A teacher's love cannot be scorned, No matter how you scream. (Whispered) Never leaving Final Refrain: Hush-a-bye, my faithless lord, The night is deep and long, I'll guard your sleep forevermore, With this, my burning song. (Whispered) Sleep now, my dearest pupil (Final Whisper) For I am but a whisper now, But whispers never die...

The Ballad of Tazmian Baladir Verse 1: In halls of Rugan's noble line, A warrior dark held sway, His brother's blood did freely flow, As family bonds gave way. Young Desmond's blade he shaped with care, Till rebellion's flames rose high, And master turned to wandering shade, Beneath a darkened sky. Refrain: Oh Tazmian, death's favored son, Your loyalty burns cold, Through fire and shadow you return, Your tale forever told. Verse 2: Astarathian on wings of gold, Brought judgment from above, As dragon's breath turned armor cold, He proved his fatal love. A wraith's dark pact he would not refuse, To serve his lord again, His heart a burning coal of hate, His soul wrapped tight in chains. Verse 3: In Pharasma's realm of endless graves, He found his sweetest prize, His master's wife from death he claimed, To fuel his dark reprise. Her tortured soul he held in thrall, Till need did call it forth, To save the one who spurned his love, And sealed his final wrath. Final Verse: With Ixen's flame they sought an end, To break his deathless reign, Yet still he whispers in the night, Through dreams of endless pain. For loyalty when twisted so, Transcends all mortal laws, In nightmares now his tale lives on, With phantom, burning claws. Final Refrain: Oh Tazmian, death's favored son, Your loyalty burns cold, Through fire and shadow you return, Your tale forever told.

[Verse] Yo it's time to make a change Greece is on the line The fate of our nation it's all on your mind I'm talkin' 'bout Athena the leader we need Wisdom courage and strength she's the one we heed [Verse 2] From the ancient ruins she rises tall Her light guiding us through it all With wisdom and courage she'll lead us right In the darkest of times she's our shining light [Chorus] Athena Athena hear our call Stand by our side when we stumble and fall With your guidance we'll rebuild it all Athena Athena guide us through the brawl [Bridge] In the shadow of the Parthenon she stands so brave A guardian of the land of the free and the slave With every step she takes we're bound to believe Athena our goddess of hope will relieve [Verse 3] The olive tree's leaves fall upon her shield A symbol of peace that will never yield From the depths of despair she'll lift our hearts With Athena's wisdom we're making new starts [Chorus] Athena Athena hear our call Stand by our side when we stumble and fall With your guidance we'll rebuild it all Athena Athena guide us through the brawl

[Verse] In the dead of night he made a pact With shadows deep for power lacked A whispered oath a soul to trade In candlelight his fate was laid [Chorus] He conjured flames from nothing cold But all the gold could not console For every spell his heart grew dim A haunting gaze a wicked grin [Verse 2] Through ancient tomes and cryptic lore He sought to close the devil's door But echoes of his final vow Were binding chains that held him now [Chorus] He conjured flames from nothing cold But all the gold could not console For every spell his heart grew dim A haunting gaze a wicked grin [Bridge] Beneath the surface shadows writhe A dance of life where devils thrive He screams into the void he wrought Too late to change the doom he sought [Chorus] He conjured flames from nothing cold But all the gold could not console For every spell his heart grew dim A haunting gaze a wicked grin

[Verse] You gave your love then tore it up Left me stranded out of luck Now I'm rising from the dust My heart’s been hardened can't be crushed [Verse 2] You thought you'd dance on shattered dreams Bet you never heard my silent screams Revenge is sweeter than it seems My heart now burns with wicked schemes [Chorus] Heartburn baby feel the flame You lit the spark now play the game Your love was acid on my tongue The song of vengeance will be sung [Verse 3] You whispered lies with the softest touch But I’ve learned not to care so much Your dirty deeds won't leave me weak My voice will roar when you can't speak [Verse 4] I’ve carved my pain into steel No more wounds that time won't heal With every step I’m laughing loud You’re falling down I’m standing proud [Chorus] Heartburn baby feel the flame You lit the spark now play the game Your love was acid on my tongue The song of vengeance will be sung
