Here upon the Isle of Gold
I’m told that every treasure can be bought and sold
I heard about it from the Holy One
“Seek and you shall find” and so I did
I travelled all the way around the world
To find that everything that I ever sought
Is here inside my heart of hearts, yeah
Right here with me all along
Here upon the Isle of Gold
I’m told that every pleasure can be bought and sold
The price is the treasure when the deal is done
Here beneath the ever rising Sun
P.S. There's an Easter egg in the middle of the guitar solo. Let me know if you figure it out.

Manzazu

Reaching down into deepest dolor
Through the inviolable shell of Avernus,
He reaches out with the eye of his will.
Fearless and love filled, he descends,
Through infinite ranks of burned out suns,
Past blasted landscapes of forgotten civilizations,
He reaches out with the hand of his will
Which alights upon the object of his desire
Whereupon he whispers in her ear,
"It's not too late, my dear.
Take my hand, walk with me,
'Ere the return of Black Niburu,
When all such gates will close forever."
Artwork by Jaems Murphy.
These panels depict the battle between Aarubus and Black Wolf, well before Aarubus begins his study with the Manzazu.

You shine like an ever burning light, my love
My pomegranate garden of delights
Tell my what you want, I will give it to you
No matter what I have to do it shall be yours
You are like an ever burning fire, my love
My pomegranate orchard of desire
Tell me what you want, I will make it come true
No matter what I have to do it shall be done
Lapis lazuli, blood and mercury, ebony and Ivory
Your music feeds the garden like the ocean feeds the shore
And all I’ll ever ask for is more
In the middle of the night
Be mine in the Garden of Delights
Be my pomegranate orchard of my desire
