The Dying Wizard

Stuck in this tomb, the air rushing out, death is mine tonight.
Awoke with the feeling that this day to come would take my life

As a young man I studied the arts of magic and light.
I traveled harsh realms, talked to the dead and gained power of flight!!!
In this life, you will find a world of strange illusions
In my world, reality is lost between my hands, and slipping fast As i die!

All that remains behind castle walls just outside of sight
May not be holy nor is it pure like the blackest night

For these last years sitting at my desk I write
All of my curses, learned for my lord, no longer mine to hide
In this life, you will find a world of strange illusions
In my world, reality is lost between my hands, and slipping fast As i die!

Wizard, your lifeblood is forfeit to me!
From my dreams I knew you were coming tonight.
You have befouled the realm with your art!
All these things were done by command of my liege.
He remains blameless, the taint is on You
And now you must perish in flame!!
My time is upon me, one last incantation.
My liege's soul is bound to the stone in this ring.
A wave of my hand, a quick transmutation
The ruler perishes now I am king
