Martyr
Like the talons around my neck
Teardrops tear softly at your skin
They’ll kill you if they catch you
This evil must not win
Travel far, and please be free
Stay good and without pain
And as the life is choked from me
You mourn a sad refrain
Like the fires of hell my soul burns up
The pain seems too much to bear
They’ll relinquish everything to him…
This eternity in his lair
Like so many evils we have slain together
The body protests, a violent thrash
They’ll poison my very being within
This hero, turned to ash
So run, child, and don’t look back
You are from Heaven sent
And as my heart bleeds to purest black
You weep a low lament
Do not cry, son – I’m born anew
- With demons now I merge
And as I race to collect you
You scream a frantic dirge
You can run, boy, but ne’er hide
I am as one with them
And as we rip the life from you
You squeal your requiem
