Void

The brand, it beckoned them,
In forests filled with death,
In fields colored red,
In shadows!

They crept and crawled towards me,
Begging to be set free,
Reaching out to reclaim
The sacrifice that got away.

I can't recall when last I slept,
These days and nights forever spent,
In fruitless quest of cold vengeance
Of a man I once called friend.

Passed through the iris, I
Can see beyond the realm of dreams,
And what I see here frightens me.

Boundless now from space and time,
All sense of self slips from my mind,
And I'm afraid of the other side.

They call me "Black Swordsman,"
More monster than human,
Leaving a wake of death,
Hunting apostles' kin.

Where once I was alone,
My journey's no longer my own,
Armor and man are one,
A wolf unleashed forevermore.

Beneath that Black Sun
I lost everything that I ever loved.
I swear he'll pay for this,
The blood I'll shed will be hundredfold!

Passed through the iris, I
Can see beyond the realm of dreams,
And what I see here frightens me.

Boundless now from space and time,
All sense of self slips from my mind,
And I'm afraid of the other side.

Perspective's altered now,
A vision of blackened fury,
And the darkness here devours me.

Passed through the iris, I
Can see beyond the realm of dreams,
And what I see here frightens me.

Boundless now from space and time,
All sense of self slips from my mind,
And I'm afraid of the other side.

Perspective's altered now,
A vision of blackened fury,
And the darkness here devours me.

Swept away on raging tide,
I am the beast I tried to hide,
And I'm afraid of the void inside.
