'By Thy Side I Stand' by O.M. Tesla

By thy side I stand,
Resolute and blood soaked,
Our souls facing a world that cares not
And hides all goodness behind the
Stinking smoke of battle.
I will face each foe with the strength of
Thy friendship, forged through the
Hellfire of adversity, dark and cold
Is my heart, but the spark within
Gives me life and resolve.

By thy side I stand,
Battered and torn,
Our souls drained by a world that hates
And drives its pain through us like
Rusty blades.
I will face each foe with thee 'til I fall by
Thy side, forged through the
Hellfire of adversity, dark and cold
Is my promise to thee, the spark now
Dimmed, but still deep within.

By thy side I die,
A promise fulfilled.
In a former time, in a world Undeserving and ignorant of our true
Pledge, words that bound two souls,
I will face each agony in your place.
Forged through the Hellfire of Adversity, dark and cold is our grave.
Two tiny flames now merged, two souls
As one.
