Lethargus
Cast among the flames
To serve gentle and clear
Assigned to give, never take;
Freedom and vengeance never near
Nights pass over glancing eyes
A deadly silence over his lips
Commanded to follow
Her treacherous hips
He gives her a flower
And says he belongs to her;
She looks away so cold
To cast him aside with a whisper
Nothing will be as it was
A slave as awoken from slumber
Blooming as a flower under the Truth
A damning weight he carries over
To the long hours of each day
Always his thoughts so far away...
(Servant:)
"Anger, take me
Show me something new
Let me fill with thy rage
And my body will be you."
(Anger:)
"Beware son of mortality
Thy time is small
And in thy vanity
Thou ruined it all."
"Thou hast a master by choice
Thou hast thy own voice
Let it be given to her
As thy feelings begin to blur."
(Servant:)
"But what can I do
When love is confused with fear?"
(Anger:)
"Say goodbye, long overdue
Walk again: free and sincere."
One day the servant woke
And servant he wanted to be no more
To her, valiantly, he spoke:
"you´re not the woman I adore"
Outcast he had become:
Alone, afraid, into the open land
Dreaming of her touch and bosom;
And how her heart had become bland
(Servant:)
"Hope take me
Show me something new
Let me shine with thy light
My body will be you."
(Hope:)
"Nothing is lost until you choose to
See, thy time is so small
There´s nothing more to do
Then to rise after the fall."
Envious and unclear
He returned home to servitude;
Embraced by fear and apathy
He chose her hate and solitude
(Servant)
"Please, hear me
Show me the courage for what I have to do
Let my hands find her pulsating neck
Till her vicarious face turns death blue"
"Vengeance, hear me:
She must pay for what she did
Can’t forget and can’t let it be
Time to unleash all the hate I hid"
"After it's done may I rest in glory
Couldn't follow my own path
Couldn't forget our history
Now I sleep with her blood over me."
