The Seeds of Defeat
By amalia
[Verse 1]
Under the cloak of the deep dark night,
Where the soul is hiding from the light,
A faint, weak voice begins to pray,
Begging for mercy to find a way.
He can no longer see his own face,
Lost in the shadows of this place.
[Chorus]
There is no hero, no savior to guide,
No helping hand by his side.
In the pit of the deeds he has done,
Only the darkness has won.
[Verse 2]
Deep in the gloom that starts to roll,
In the heavy darkness of his soul,
His sorrow flows through hidden cracks,
Leaving cold stains upon his tracks.
A whole lifetime wasted and gone,
In empty moments, from dusk till dawn.
[Chorus]
There is no hero, no savior to guide,
No helping hand by his side.
In the pit of the deeds he has done,
Only the darkness has won.
[Bridge]
The walls are closing, the air is cold,
A heavy secret that can't be told.
He cries out loud but there is no sound,
Trapped in a prison he built on his own,
Sinking much deeper into the unknown.
[Outro]
He was old, yet he lives forevermore,
An endless cycle on a lonely shore.
The seeds of defeat inside his heart,
Will pass to the next, as they fall apart.
Only darkness remains.
The darkness has won.
