I, Victor

i. Fracture
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
ii. War
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?
iii. Recognition
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
THE GREY
iv. Freedom
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
