I wish from the beginning of this game |
|
I had known it was in vain |
|
That everything was doomed to fail |
|
Too long I lived in childish innocence |
|
While the teachers of pretence |
|
Tested my will to prevail |
|
I cannot trust in anyone, I know |
|
To me my neighbour is my foe |
|
There's poison in the sweets you find |
|
Exploiting weakness with free trade lies |
|
The only thing you cannot buy |
|
Is happiness and peace of mind |
|
It's a balance of power; should I jump |
|
From the prisoners tower |
|
Sometimes I wish that I could lay me down |
|
And hope for no tomorrow |
|
But you'll never see me surrender my blade |
|
Refusing death's call, I will conquer my fate |
|
For I shall not yield |
|
And I cannot even sell my soul |
|
It's breath, torn and abused |
|
Still my life joy may fetch a fair price |
|
Since it's only "slightly used" |
|
It's a balance of power; should I jump |
|
From the prisoners tower |
|
Sometimes I wish that I could lay me down |
|
And hope for no tomorrow |
|
But you'll never see me surrender my blade |
|
Refusing death's call, I will conquer my fate |
|
For I shall not yield |
|
Gods of life! |
|
I meet your challenge |
|
I shall rise from every blow you strike at me |
|
I shall break every spell you throw at me |
|
You will not push me that last bit of way |
|
Over the Edge |
|
Even if I'm only holding on by sheer spite itself |
|
You may have woven this one's life tread |
|
Of a fowl and poisoned string |
|
But it shall not break |
|
That final victory shall be denied thee...forever! |
|
When even my imaginary friends |
|
Turn their backs on me again |
|
And leave me bleeding on the ground |
|
I can no longer welcome each new day |
|
But on this battlefield I'll stay |
|
'Cause you will never bring doen |
|
And when in time to the ground I'm bent |
|
From carrying life's stone; my strength all spent |
|
I shall drag myself forth by the tip of my nails |
|
To spit on your feet with a last scornful hail |
|
It's a balance of power; should I jump |
|
From the prisoners tower |
|
Sometimes I wish that I could lay me down |
|
And hope for no tomorrow |
|
But you'll never see me surrender my blade |
|
Refusing death's call, I will conquer my fate |
|
For I shall not yield |
