Eternal Torment

Rays of sunlight blind you, you wake up from a nightmare
Is this true or a dream?
You try to break the chains but you can't muster the strength
The fire is just embers

Everyday the same, you suffer the pain
But you don't relent, eternal torment

You bow you head, alone in a valley of anguish
The eagle's cry breaks the silence
While you bear the pain, the beast eats its fill
Alone again, free of emotion

Everyday the same, you suffer the pain
But you don't relent, eternal torment

Year after year has passed, the hope for mercy's gone
Your existence, likely forgotten
All of a sudden an arrow strikes, a shattering scream, the eagle dies
Finally, free again
