We come together,
To join in a quest,
To find the eternal truth...

But no one ever told us,
They never said,
Always said,
Did they say?

They never told us who we were
They never said it would be hard,
So hard.
They never told us what our losses would be.

Yet still, we are here,
We are on this quest.
Is it too late?
It's too late to ask.

For we have been bound,
Bound by the search for the truth.
The truth which we may never find
And yet we can't help but look for...

Come, my friends, join the quest.

First and Foremost Welcome To Dark Passions,

They never told us who we were
They never said it would be hard,
So hard.
They never told us what our losses would be.

Yet still, we are here,
We are on this quest.
Is it too late?
It's too late to ask.

I like those lines, it intriques me...and I will join you in the quest.

welcome again

Daniel

 The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, not the kindly smile, not the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship."

humming madly
filling my head
with blood
and sorrow
and dread
the executioner's song."

Welcome to Dark Passions Hope,

The Quest can be long and hard, but we must never give up. . . the rewards are too great and the experience will help us to be better people. . .

Welcome Hope.  I agree too, some of us are already on our quests, but we can all go forth together, come on, take my hand, Sven too, anyone else??
