For a Cleaner Heart

This song is a direct rip from a song by Rush, Closer to the Heart, and is a heck of a lot longer. It steals the meter directly from the phrasing of the song as performed on the album Farewell to Kings ... [1]

For a Cleaner Heart

Suspended in high places
Enigma had to start
To alter our reality
With a cleaner heart

Upon inverted mountain
Right placement was a part
The golden ball of Cai’Valur
For a cleaner heart

Bewildered by the prisms
Assault by cold and flame
Flying constructs, lightning bolts
Defend the void domain

Against the bold Enigma
Geometry confounds
The path to heart and destiny
Star spawn are all cut down

Into the void and chaos
Bewildered, with no chart
Seeking Iska kel Pana
And so a cleaner heart

By violet and crimson
Chained and bound was she
Enigma leaped across the void
To set the lady free

Avast, the great void dragon
With breath both bright and dark
To burn the bard and sorcerer
Their soul’s, flesh to debark

But up rose that bold halfling
His blade a lethal spark
Astride the wrym’s great dorsal bone
The rapier hit its mark

The blade master, undaunted
Destroyed the chaos fluke
Withstood the dragon's lethal belch
Sharp steel was his rebuke

And so the chains were broken
From void they did depart
Returning to suspended mount
To make a cleaner heart

A prismatic eruption
Blew them into the void
The angels caught them as they fell
Corruption was destroyed

And so Enigma vanquished
Designs of the dark art
They sail ahead to destiny
All with a cleaner heart
{quick guitar riff}
All for a cleaner heart!
