lyrics

When something bad might happen, I imagine something worse
To prepare my fragile psyche, for what may not occur
What a way of self-conditioning I've fashioned for myself
A tomb for a lonely ghost / A most unheavenly host
Three pages torn from a mage's tome, a spell that went unfinished
A rambling existential troll with a soul trapped and diminished
This affliction's got a hold on me, this affliction's gonna kill me
But as long as I've got this blade I will live to find another day

***********************************

Three pages torn from a mage's tome
A spell for all the right ideas
A spell for the right thoughts in your head
A spell to quell unfeeling
Three pages taken from the battlemage
An ancient wizard's greatest work
Auctioned off to the highest bidder

***********************************

So I dive into the dungeon / the dungeon deep and dark
With nothing but a torch and a short blade stored at my side, and I
Do not fear this dungeon or the orcs that hide inside, for I've
Come to seek the pages that battlemage stole back
Now he's hiding in a chamber right behind an enchanted door
I am not a mage but I know a spell that just might work
Blood magic is forbidden but I do not fear the gods
So I cut my palm wide open and I charge in sword drawn here to claim my prize

***********************************

Three pages torn from a mage's tome
A spell for all the right ideas
A spell for the right thoughts in your head
A spell to quell unfeeling
Three pages taken from the battlemage
An ancient wizard's greatest work
Now I am the rightful owner

***********************************
Now I am the rightful owner
Of the mage's spell
