Last Farewell

They fight for life
Pure graces of light
They desire peace
But dwell in war
Taking no other will
But their own

In war they see salvation
The end of darkness
Is their only redemption

If they could see
The spark of light was born in the dark
Without evil there would never be
Time of good and light

Abandoned lands
Once mighty tower lie in ruins
Is this the end
My loyal servant?
Is this the last our meet
My dear friend?

We had it all
But couldn’t save it
We saw the fall
But couldn’t rise again
Now as it’s all gone
I beg you just run away

They say they are merciful
But are they now
Enjoying me bleeding so beautiful

No mercy they had letting me down
No light shone in their heart
As they sent me back to the void
Beyond the edge of the world
Alone and lost in the darkness of time

They are but all the grace of those fair lands
Guardians of peace and life
They have but their twisted truth in their heart
Saviours they are but the ones who never forget

Save yourself and keep all that left
Don’t let them break you
Now I bid you this farewell

Beyond the Door of the Night I’m bound
Though you walk free
Within you will live my oath and heart
As there was the only truth for you and me
