As the knife slowly turns and all of the hope has been forgotten

I will descend on blackened wings

Through the ash and the smoke

Unearthly cries ring out through the night skies

Shattering any illusion of safety

All these souls are doomed

I can feel the hands tightening around my neck

I just can’t keep changing direction

I can feel the noose as it tightens it’s grip

I can feel my time running through my fingers

I have to inflict suffering

But I swear my hand has been manipulated

Something seeking my indecision

And grabbing it by the throat

All I could see was a hooded figure

A wraith without a face or a soul

I felt thе need to separate me from the very things once keeping me sane

I felt the soul being ripped from my body

I looked on as it took control

I watched as it ripped out of me everything I used to be and cast it to an inescapable hole

I know I have to make them suffer

I know my destiny is to inflict suffering

I’ve been trying to find the path back to that place I know I’ve seen in my mind

We’ve been searching just to find a place where we belong

Fighting this war each and every day

With all of these demons that I have to slay

It feels like the world has come crashing down all around my ears

Still fighting this war each and every day

With all of the demons that stand in my way

It feels like the world has come crashing down all around my ears
