The Sleeper Stirs
starbar

Lock your doors, Bar your windows
Beware the Sleeper is stirring.
for the sleeper is stirring

From the South marches an Army of Death
From the North flows an eery Mist
From the East come galloping a Ghostly Gray Mare
From the West he comes.

Bar the doors, shield the shutters
Less yee be civil
For the sleeper is waking

His hair is the color of Earth
The Eyes are that of the Sea
The skin pales as seen

Be yee Nations Righteous
for the sleeper be he.
Less he Takes the Army
Less He ride into the mist

For the Sleeper Has Awaken
For the Mystic Warrior Has come
Beware, Beware For The time is coming
When Science Gives way to Magic
When Evil rule the Lands, The Sleeper Will Awaken
For Mystic Warrior Be He, Let him not Awaken
