Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Once upon an age Bound, impure All the lies were set aflame Denied the cure I was fitted with exile For crime of a curse Remade by the fangs of the beast The shining light Of the gods of men Would not warm me For I was damned Beaten and bloodied And mad with the thirst I fled from the city in shame Covered in spit And harried by guilt I fed on vermin Forgot my name There at the foot Of the snow capped mountains Wreathed in a freezing fog Eyes in the dark I prayed to be killed As I ate dead meat like a dog Haunted by memories Of home as I climbed Feeling the ice on my skin The stones pierced me My fingers bled, But the flesh was mended By the beast within All the lies of man Bare before my eyes We drink the world Like a parasite A cloak of virtue Is where we hide To cut the throat of the sacrifice There, at the peak Long-forgotten shrine Where spoke a voice Like the mountainside Like shifting stones "I am the killing change The heaving erth There is a scar with every birth Fear not the end, it is the way Mountains are forged From tortured clay" Embrace the change Fear not the end The wolf awaits beneath the skin Destroy yourself, It is the start And carve the truth into your heart
