I passed all the tests and finally won
Even those that left me shattered
I beat to the impossible, to the most horrible
In the end I dare not claim the treasure
In the end, I learned to fear my own obsession more
Than what I thought I was most afraid of
I learned to fear to the very heart that I had earned
A heart that was not poisoned, but that was killing me
After losing sanity, after reaching the very edge of death
And then being there, sleeping in a sleepy grave
I can see my hands are tarred , my wings are tarred
I see I cannot longer serve to that heart
If I ever wanted to deserve her
Then I had to stop playing with death
Then the choice to turn my back was no longer mine
But a knight comes to save me
And with whom I feel indebted
A someone who gave me his humanity
Someone for whom I cried, for a second time
With time I emerge, reborn as human
When I finally return to the bright surface of the world
I see sad dismissal arriving, because it was time
To carry on alone, to find myself again.
He gave me his heart, a radiant heart
That gave me back my appetite for living life
That gave me back the reins to live life
Then the choice to turn my back was now mine
Please be safe friend
Don't you dare miss your humanity
Thank you...
Following now my own way, alone
I defeat my biggest fears
Finaly, I now live in harmony
And again history repeats itself
And again the world comes to seem doomed
Drowning into the past
Watching myself how, in a deliberate act,
I destroy all the blood in a single touch
For what I once gave for even the last drop of life
Of the life I once had
And in my obsession to keep fighting I find
That once again the fuel that gives me victory
Turns out to be my very own defeated heart
Once again here I am crying
Sitting on the throne that I gave everything to conquer
And think ...
At least, those who give up have something to live for...
