Pain and Serenity

The Hero's Inner Thoughts

Tilted head in the mirror from the view

How much longer is this going to eat alive?

You're forgetting the things that hold all value

Are you starting to forget the difference between you and them?

The hero must always keep their line of sight.

Those with the brightest eyes could have to darkest souls

Making it difficult to keep your head held high

When everyone around you comes to you losing their mind

Insanity knocking at the door trying to flirt

The world is a cold place that will try to suck you in,

But the hero must always keep their line of sight

There's always a continuous fight

Only seeking dominance

It's the same old fight

You must remain like the white wolf

Even when evil comes stirring the pot

With their eyes sharper than daggers waiting to take you down

You have to keep your eyes up to the light

If you die now no one will be the same

You choose the path of destruction

To hear the world crashing around you

Open your eyes and look now that are perishing

The Lone Survivor in a place full of destruction

Picking up my sword to fight off the darkness

Keeping my eyes to the light

To keep the hope that glimmers in my eyes

The fight has now begun

Fighting off the criminals that make this world dull

I will be the one to save them all

But am I ready to give my life up

My life has just started

Am I ready to give it all away

Or should I take off the masquerade

Will I be able to overcome the thoughts that eat at my brain

Or will I manage to fade away

Only time can tell now

If all this fighting to keep the people safe

Is all worth the pain that will lead me to my grave
