I am a lowly vermin
Good for nothing, to be scorned
I am cowardly and evil
All curse they days I was born
For I am but only a vermin
No good can come from me
For how can that be so?
All vermin are evil, you see
I cannot love
I cannot feel
I am not loyal
Not fit for the crow's meal
I am a lowly vermin
Nothing more can I be
An evil thing, darkness child
From darkness' family
Clothed in flowing black
Beast's bones around my neck
Watching, ever watching Redwall
Because I shall never forget.
I shan't forget the first time
Your "pure light" hurt my eyes
I shan't forget my mother's death
Whom you claim tyrannized
I shan't the horror of my brother
Who's now slain
And I shan't forget your battle cry
When you then took the day
I shan't ever forget the moment
Our immortal fortress was slain
And I shan't remember what you screamed
To those still alive:
"All evil will fall, all vermin shall die
Good will prevail, now get out our lives!"
And you chased us away
Away from my home
Told us never to return
So in the cold dark nights I roamed
And my so-called "black heart's" anger burned
In rage I followed you, you heroes small
Leaving no clues no traces, no hints
To this odd place called "Redwall"
And I waited there and watched
Imagining my glory day
To stand upon that abbey's corpse
Revenge till they dismay
I listened to you liars
Claiming that you did "good"
What good is it that my family's gone forever
My brothers, my sister, my brood?!
You say that vermin can't love
I did
You say villains are cowardly
I'm not
You say my parents were evil
If that so, why then did they defend us all
Said they'd use every breath they got?
You're not the heroes you claim to be
You attack us in our sleep
Insanity reigned
On the day you arrived
The day my comrades were slain
So here I am, still waiting.
Why?
Because I am a lowly vermin
Good for nothing, forever to be scorned
I am cowardly and evil
You curse the day I was born
For I am but only a vermin
Only greed my gold eyes can see
I am but a murdering villain
No good can come from me
I am a lowly, sinful vermin
Nothing more can I be
An evil thing, darkness child
From darkness' family
Clothed in flowing black
Beast's bones around my neck
Watching, ever watching you, Redwall
Because your lies I shall never ever forget.
