Worst Enemy

I wonder if it was you that was afraid

of the light

Or the light in you has completely faded

You chose chaos amongst the fight

And the fields of fire you've created

Still echoes every night

For all the lives you have taken

 

I wonder if it was you who ran away from us

Or the demons you secretly fed

Finally have taken you over

They misguided you from the right path

And you were so damn grateful

 

I'm not sure if I want to save you now

You went too far with your vengeance

That pit is no friend of mine

And you don't crave for salvation

 

I don't know if it's worth my time at all

Searching for a way to bring you back

You never leave a track

And I'm no hunter to be honest

 

Every tear that I have shed

Shredded the cosmic ocean

Every memory from the time we met

To our last became a wound

I should've treated with care

 

 

Tell me, do you still carry the love

You stole as a bittersweet memento

from our once joyful times?

Or you throw it away to vanquish

Your so-called enemies

Who were your family?

 

At last

I hope it left a savour taste

In your mouth, and I hope my face

To be the only thing you would

Never erase from your mind

 

 

That much you owe me,

Don't pretend that you forget

Because you can't compensate

For all mistakes you have made

 

And when everything come to an end,

I know, my name will drive you insane

 

The fields are now greener 

I won't let them vanish again

And the rivers continues to flow,

Down to its destinations

The mountains flourish with life again

I've never seen them so lively

The vast skies are clearer than before

Not a single trace left of malice

And the sun is shining brighter,

You would've seen, if you only tried harder

 

If you weren't so blind and greedy for power

Then maybe you would've survived

And spared me the sorrow

Alas,

I wish the love you had for us

Broke through those walls

And reached you out sooner

Because the next time

We gaze into each others' eyes

Only one of us shall survive
