Back when suffering and me was like two sides of the same coin.
When my physical pain got joined with a personality that brewed flames.
I became the dark knight that crept through vain hollows
I walked where death follows; even the Sun knows I was dark entirely
I swallowed hope and positivity; chaining the ones that wanted freedom
I was a King and pain my fiefdom
Thanatology became a part of me
With an Iron fist I ruled that kingdom.
Arbitrary contracted lists of enemies conscribed in jealousy
Came for my name a name of dreaded curses blasphemed by heresy;
The good that existed disappeared, Figments throughout reality.
A part of me vanished entirely, Demons became the closest friends of me
My name slowly became dreaded cross the land and sea
That thought made the evil inside start smiling
There's power in this despised fiend
That only knows love by none other than me.
I was happy to be hated I would hurt and not care
Discriminate to bring harm to others felt great
I was the reaper with the blade hovering above their thread of fate
I was disconnected from everyone for their sake;
Your wretched feelings pouring out over heartbreak
only makes me give a smile that's fake
There are wars that take place behind my eyes
So how could your sorrow compare to mine?
What people seemed to see was a pride,
A flame of dark heat that sneaks inside this soul of a roaring Lion
Becoming the biggest fire how could you compare
When to me your life's a lighter nothing can compare
To my greed and desire I feed on the bravest
warrior that comes upon my step
for like a dragon my breath shakes the ground and makes you sweat
That pure rage like a bliss purely sweeps away the thoughts of escape
You are a bee sting on a tree; you are and will be the furthest thing from me
I can't imagine a you; or maybe better known as nothing
When you look down you see your reflection, upon gazing up
you're perplexed as to why you see me, It must be tough
to know you stand that low, but that's how far away we seem to be
Eternal fire may even become a friend of me,
but baptized in my brimstone enemies shall freeze
I built a legacy that moves and shakes the toughest tree
So great it seemingly must be, power, fame, even glory
It's everything you could want, but from that I must separate entirely
Thank you Sun for changing what I couldn't see.
