Hero of the Black Dawn

 Hero of the black dawn

  Mea culpa,

  Pride of the penniless aristocrat

  Hate of the hungry beggar

  Lust of the staunch believer

  Rage of the confused fool 

  Guilt of the mute psychic

  Welcome, welcome

  This paradise forlorn

  This song for you foretold 

 Salaam to the tortured soul

 Amen to the disillusioned winner

 Hail the villainous hero

 Encore for the one who cried foul

 The Hero of the black dawn

   Mea culpa,

   Confusion of the throne-less ruler

   Pain of the unwanted intellectual

   Disease of expressionless love

   Vanity of the chosen prophet

   Greed of the confident pawn
 

   Welcome, welcome

   This paradise forlorn

   This song for you foretold

  
 Salaam to the tortured soul

 Amen to the disillusioned winner

 Hail the villainous hero

 Encore for the one who cried foul

 The Hero of the black dawn
