Lyrics

Invictus
Music: Graham Guest & Moses Guest
Words: William Earnest Henley, Graham Guest & Dan Marks
From the night that is my cover
Black as pitch from pole to pole
I thank the gods, be they whatever
For my unconquerable soul
In the clutch of circumstance
I have not winced or cried aloud
Under the bludgeoning of chance
My head is bloody but unbowed
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms the horror of the shade
And yet the menace of the years
Shall always find me unafraid
And that's the way it has to be...
I lIve inside these things I say
Just like I live inside my home
Though in this world of words I play
Ultimately, I am alone
So when the end is standing by
Shadows long from head to toe
My blade will cut both deep and dry
And night will fall upon the floor
It matters not how straight the gate
How charged with punishments the scroll
I am the master of my fate
I am the captain of my soul
And that's the way it has to be
Written by: Graham Guest
