The Hero

The blade I swing

Is black as night

Black as my soulless heart

It bears the burden

Of many lives

But I don´t feel remorse

I lent my sword

To anyone

Willing to pay the price

No regrets for

What I´ve done

A mercenary´s life

But there I was

On battleground

Until I felt the jaws of death

Cut into my flesh

Defending old and weak

But I did not retreat

Now, here I lie

In my own blood

And strangers cry for me

I´m prepared to meet the Gods

I wish they´d let me be

I don't deserve

Their sympathy

I know who I am

My soul is death and misery

I am an evil man

I rest in my blood

Soon I will face the Gods

Strangers cry for me

I wish they´d let me be

Show no sympathy

Shed no tears for me

I know who I am

I am an evil man

I know who I am

I am an evil man
