Lyrics

I've spent all of this time, a cauldron stirring hate despite
How every second I've been gone are seconds gone to waste
But here you are, it's unexplained, it's what can only be my fate
We share a common point of view, I'm glad we can relate
All-powerful and pained, par for the masquerade
What once was fueling rage is now part of the game
My vision through your eyes, our coalescing minds
Have given me new life, and now their lives are mine
As blade and brawn clash in the dust
Of every brawl victorious
No rhyme or reason, just a smile that's only growing wider
Hundreds of voices cry above
They're pleading, echoing at once
"We thought you'd free us from our trial," but I have brought their pyre
You've faced monsters on your own, you've even stood before a throne
Maybe in other lives you've held on despite everything
But here and now, you'll finally know just what it means to lose control
Just what it's like to watch them burn and never feel a thing
All-knowing and so pained, par for the masquerade
What once wanted to save has now become a slave
My vision through your eyes, our coalescing minds
Have given me new life, and now we intertwine
As blade and brawn clash in the dust
Of every brawl victorious
No rhyme or reason, just a smile that's only growing wider
Hundreds of voices cry above
They're pleading, echoing at once
"We thought you'd free us from our trial," but I have brought their pyre
No man can stop this wave, no beast is standing in my way
No one below or in the sky will be the one who's left alive
Once full of mercy, full of love, you fear just what I have become
You know I'd walk a million miles to set your world on fire
Your world on fire
It seems we two have reached the absolute
There's nothing left to see, nothing to do
We both have greater things we can pursue
I think it's time we moved to something new
Amusing, is it not, how far you'll go
To keep this world from being left alone?
How you would face me here and tell me no
As if you were the one who had control
As blade and brawn clash in the dust
Of every brawl victorious
No rhyme or reason, just a smile that's only growing wider
Hundreds of voices cry above
They're pleading, echoing at once
"We thought you'd free us from our trial," but I have brought their pyre
No man can stop this wave, no beast is standing in my way
No one below or in the sky will be the one who's left alive
Once full of mercy, full of love, you fear just what I have become
You know I'd walk a million miles to set your world on fire
