The sun has fallen
And a bloody moon rises
A death knell emanating from the trees

The earth is trembling
A howl and a grunt tearing the air
The final showdown is ready to begin

This thick mist
Choking every pore of my skin
It’s hard to resist
I can barely breathe

I’m paralyzed
Fear and pain are a blend
Inside my head

They’re mowing me down!
I can’t fight back!

I’m still alive
The next clash will be my end
I failed
And now I understand it
I can’t avoid thinking
So many years I threw away
With the hope of building better days

They’re mowing me down!
I’m torn apart

They’re beating her!
My dying breath

Antler and fang
Primal dance
Ego and oaths

I can’t run away! I can’t face it!

Desperate I am, a broken man

Barren will, pride is lost
Can a man endure this pain?
Can a soul survive this world?

I’m defeated
I’ve lost against myself
I’m bowed down
King of errors

My body is buried
My mind is drowned
A throne for no kingdom
An emperor with no crown

The wild clash falls silent
Just nothingness remains
Faithless, godless, alone and aimless
Lost in the silence

Black and Blue fade away
White and Red vanish
Suddenly appears

Is there a life before death?
Perhaps there’s one after?
A strength resonates within me
Raw energy flowing through me
It’s not the child, which lies dead at my feet
It’s the call of something deeper
A part of me is dying
The child is gone, and the man is born

The Beasts are banished
Just myself and the girl
The will to embrace her
And a scream
All fears vanquished
Answers revealing

End a life of deception
Embody The Grey that is you
Open your eyes, Victor
Find peace on your own
And be true to your heart
Bear up
Under
The daily
Strife!

In the sky I can see the bright stars
My feet can feel the dirt beneath
I look ahead, at those endless plains

I’m leaving all ties behind I am free!
Calm down
I will stay with you

This Desolate Process
Is finally over
‘Cause now

I
Know
Who
I
Am
