Tyranny

What shall we do?

Choices lay before us,

But which shall we choose?

The flock? Or the lone hunter?

""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

People count on us, cherish us

How can we carry this burden alone?

What will become of us?

Is evil destined to rule our hearts?

""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

Why are we faced with scorn?

Why are we conflicting?

How can tyranny rule with an iron fist?

Fear…fear is the answer

"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

Be brave little one, be brave

Even though you are racked with pain,

Racked with guilt, inflamed fear

Press on, for the cripple who is whole shall guide you

""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

Shall we fight? Yes, we shall

Fight against tyranny, fight darkness

Fight your fears, your anxieties

Fight them all away

""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

Destroy all evil, destroy tyranny
