Dark light is swallowing my skin
The logic fades, let the chaos begin
My grip is tight, the power starts to overflow
A twisted rage is all I’ve come to know
I swing these arms just to keep you safe and sound
But who am I hurting while I’m tearing up the ground?
Is this the monster I’ve become?
Is there a piece of me left, or am I numb?
But I can’t stop, I’m locked inside this cage
Fueling the fire with this holy rage
It burns my chest, it scars my very soul
Loss of my spirit is the final toll
The screams are drowned, they never reach the air
A voiceless cry, a desperate prayer
But even so, I’m standing on this line
I’m still myself, this life is mine!
Don’t let me lose myself! – Stay inside the light
Even if the power grows! – I’ll hold on tight
I’m still here fighting! – Through the darkest night
Don’t let the darkness win! – Win this fight!
Why was I chosen? Why this cursed might?
Why do they hunt me in the dead of night?
A target painted on a broken man
Part of a shadow, part of a plan
There are no answers waiting in the rain
Only the reality, the blood, and the pain
To guard what’s left, to keep the world alive
This is the only way I can survive
There is a place where I belong, I know
Even if my voice is trembling and low
The wish inside will never fade away
I’m holding on to see another day
Even when I’m breaking! – I won’t fall apart
I won’t let go of this! – Fire in my heart
The will to protect remains! – Through the dark
Through all the darkness and pain! – Leave a mark
This is who I choose to be! – It’s who I am!
Through the agony, through the blinding doubt
There’s only one way, and it’s moving out
Wrapped in this armor, steel against the bone
I’ll keep on standing, even on my own
Even if no one knows my name! – Let the world forget
I’ll keep standing here alone! – No more regret
This rage, this fear, this pain! – I’ll bear the weight
I’ll carry all of it! – I’ll seal my fate!
I’ll protect it all until the bitter end
I’m still the man on whom they can depend!
The screams are drowned, they never reach the air
A voiceless cry, a desperate prayer
But even so, I’m standing on this line
I’m still myself, this life is mine!
There is a place where I belong, I know
Even if my voice is trembling and low
The wish inside will never fade away
I’m never giving up, I’m here to stay!
The end is nowhere in sight
But still
I just want to be me
Holding that wish close
Deep inside my chest
