Take a look deep inside her heart

Take a peek at the darkest part

Learn her fears, dreams and desires

Gaze at her black city, examine the twisted spires

Watch the streets, clogged with liars

Around the corners hide thieves, beggars, murderers galore

There is so much evil, its impossible to ignore

In each house, behind shattered windows

Cry broken orphans, lonely widows

Little boys roam lost on the streets

And kind men, their ends they do meet

This place was once so beautiful, so full of love

But then came the beings, who fell from above

Darkness soon swept through the land, and light was too late

Everything had turned to grief, despair and hate

In the center of the city, lies the courtyard square

A girl, all chained up, remains there

And there she had been, many a year

From even the toughest men, her fate draws a tear

For this place was once her city, her home

Before the evil came, and she was alone

Captured and bound, tortured and forced down

Her heart lies shattered at her feet

Struggling so hard to continue to beat

Here she spends all her time, stuck this was since age nine

Trying to bring back the light

Slowly losing all her fight

Blinded by the endless night

She remembers how her city was long ago

And she knows that she is her own foe

But whenever she manages to get free

She gets dragged back and from her is extracted a painful fee

Her only hope is that one day she'll atone for her mistakes

And get rid of all the evil that her darkness makes

To bring back the love and the light

And to her plight into a fair fight.
