- Murtagh's Prayer -

Over seas and through the land

Hear my call, I reach for you

Broken, lonely as I stand

Hoping you will see the truth

*

Hoping you will see the soul

Sheltered in disguise

Though I know that twisted fate

Decided otherwise

*

Fully armoured, dressed to kill

Zar'roc heavy in my hand

I will serve against my will

The king of our land

*

Born in anger, raised with death

Morzan's hated child

Had no choice since my first breath

Grown up cold and wild

*

Have you seen the scars I bear,

The pain behind the mask ?

If you could believe these words

Is all that I could ask

*

I will beg you if I must

If it makes you stay

All my hopes have turned to dust

There's nothing more to say

*

I'll atone for all my crimes

Redemption at your feet

My memories are yours to keep

So bitter, yet so sweet

*

I speak to you from far away

Before I leave for war

And till my last breath I will pray

I'll see your face once more

*

I do not fool myself. I feel

This battle means my end

A wound too many, from a foe

Whom I once called a friend

*

Please pray for me, and for my Thorn

We'll watch you from above

Remember that you were, for me

My one and only love.
