Carve the fire into your skin Stitch the wounds revealing the sin Waiting in the sky is the wisdom of the ages Freedom's ignorant realm Clear the thoughts addressing your heart While rage and honor tear your apart Look beyond the clouds With your troubles left behind you I can lead you Charging, bloody Crimson red Hollow, shameful Leave them dead Nightfall draws ever near In the silence all you can hear Is pride's heartless whimper As your purpose falls away But hold your ground and wait Shadows creep in forest below The sun has set, no light left to show The memory to bridge This purpose to your home The cracking glow unknown At the sound of war, when blood boils to a flame Does your spirit die? When the frost of your truth has melted away Vaunting veins will redden the night Your ghost charges forth Vaunting veins will redden the night Your heart still breathes in the north You long to see this enemy As a mirror into your soul A worthy adversary wearing the badge Of his strength for all to know But his heart is buried deep in his eyes His purpose locked within his mind You fear the power his clarity can find Fall to your knees You bored and reckless man Why have you taken the lifes of Those who choose to walk the path of light Men - But can you tell which is your foe Blood - It flows in rivers on the ground below Wind - The wind is howling past your ear Now - Your final battle drawing near The despair of the voices from my home Fills the air Was love not enough? Were they not enough? Screams of sorrow, longing for my land Sanguine pride flows down my hand Wounds to guide my way eternally My fire stains the earth
