Unsheathed

I took all I had and ran away as fast as I could Into the forest of black skies and rotting wood The more I ran the less I saw I drew further into the mountain's jaw Snow and winter began to fall onto my hair Everytime I tried to sleep I'd fall into a nightmare But I have nowhere else to go The twisted trees laugh at me I know Every day a new bruise appears The forest grows darker every morning I fear Souls and Shadows groan and trick me Into giving them blood I bleed Eventually I came across a sword sticking out of a stone I decided I'd make it my goal to unsheath it For weeks and weeks I tried so much I cried and punched and never gave up I battled many enemies within this forest To them I am just a tourist Running through their sacred hill And they try to make me their first kill I know I'm not built for what I set myself up for But I've gone too far there's no turning back anymore I pondered my choices A million voices Begging me to circum to my urges I consider myself a pacifist But everytime I see those evil wolves I clench my fist It's getting harder and harder to live off nuts and berries I'm starting to feel something inside me I need to hold it back this isn't who I am They want me to join but I won't join them Those evil wolves made me this way with their vicious bite I want revenge I don't care if it's wrong or right My life is ruined and I can never go back home When the moonlight shines my mouth starts to foam And fur rises from my skin and turns me into a freak My stare becomes red black and bleak I scratch those trees when they laugh at me I try to not hate who I have to have to be But now I'm a werewolf and there's nothing I can do to return to those I miss without hurting them Bet that I won't live too long Gone by the end of this song Losing strength to walk around Famine, I drop pound by pound Bet that I won't live too long Gone by the end of this song Losing strength to walk around Famine, I drop pound by pound Bet that I won't live too long Gone by the end of this song Losing strength to walk around Famine, I drop pound by pound Bet that I won't live too long Gone by the end of this song Losing strength to walk around Famine, I drop pound by pound If I want to live I must give up my dignity Abandon my pact of peace and embrace the true survival I wish it didn't come to this but I have no choice In this forest there's no way to live if you can't fight I hunted everything in sight I killed everything I bite When I embraced my fury and rage Lighting shot from the page It shot onto the stone The sword sticking out all alone I knew it was my time I grabbed the blade of mine And I unsheathed the sword in the stone Then destroyed everything in this forest to the bone The universe will never forget you
