The End of A Soul (Us All)

When darkness comes to create a storm

I will stand lost, and forlorn

To fight my way, to the end of my dome

To fight for what's right, not to condone

A storm's flight will conquer

Many, but not all

For my own flight,

will conquer the storm's call...

Fear is but a toy, used by the holder

To gain power, to bolster

forces beyond strength

without hope, you will succumb to fear,

but gather, children, the storm is here

Fear not for your safety, but for your soul

the end of a soul

spells the end of us all

when one leaves, many fall

when one cries, many call

Calling to freedom,

crawling from fear

to fight for what's right,

to fight for what's dear...

Run from the cloth, red velvet cloth

it brings with it monsters

created from fear,

they thrive on suffering…

they'll dine on us here

they come on in hordes,

beings of fear...

Run, my dear children,

I'll hold them off,

'till the last of my skin,

has fallen off

Let my blood run free

in crimson decree,

that truth is greater than all

For the loss of one soul,

is nothing at all,

if it stops, the end of us all...

I stand lost and worn

In the edge of the storm

fighting for justice

not just for this

but for all who will see

that I am but nothing,

If I am not me

so in a storm,

I am lost and worn

forgotten among my own kind

Forgiving, never loathing

what is in store

I stand in my forest

lost and worn...

For this is the end,

the end of a soul

this is the end,

the end of us all
