Written to the song, "Won't Back Down" by Fuel
I know what darkness means
(and the void you learned from me)
The world as we know it has come to an end. This is mankind's final hour…
The isolation steams
(So I think it wants to bleed)
Cody Martin wanders alone. Everyone he cared about is now either dead or dying, claimed by the darkness descending upon the world.
The echoes in my brain
(All the things you said to me)
Zack had always said he'd be there for Cody, no matter what kind of trouble he was in.
You took my everything
But now Zack is gone
Now I'm coming for you!
Cody now lives purely for vengeance, and he will have it or die trying.
[Chorus:]
I won't back down
I will not bow
Demons from the Chaos Realm surround him...He stands there defiantly as light forms around his fingertips.
I've come to bring you hell
Blinding light explodes outward, silhouetting the demons for a split second before they vanish.
I can't forget
Things you did
The light fades briefly, Cody is standing still as a statue with his head hung in sadness. A single tear traces a path down his cheek.
I've come to bring you hell
His head rises and his eyes open to reveal a cold fire in their depths.
The shadows that you see
(In the places that you sleep)
Every night he relives that fateful day when this all started…
Are memories of me
(Better pray your soul to keep)
The grinning face of his twin brother appears briefly.
The truth behind your eyes
(You know the thing you never see)
Zack's face contorts into horror as the demons impale him…But Cody only heard his screams.
Your darkest little lies
He said he'd always be there for him.
I'm coming for you!
Cody runs for the ruins of the Tipton, trying to escape his own personal demons.
[Chorus:]
I won't back down
I will not bow
The demons stand ready to stop him, but he will not run from them any longer.
I've come to bring you hell
The ground quaked, piles of rubble were blasted in all directions and more demons were wiped out of existence.
I can't forget
Things you did
The door to the suite flying off its hinges, his mother trying to shield him from them…
I've come to bring you hell
Cody charged forward.
All the scars that never heal
Leaving the bodies of his loved ones behind, fleeing for his life on that fateful day.
All the wounds that will not seal
Escaping to the protection of his father, only to get him killed days later…
I will not forget the day
They were always coming for him.
These memories never fall
The pain never goes away.
[Chorus:]
I won't back down
I will not bow
He made it to the Tipton, but so did the beast chasing him.
I've come to bring you hell
Cody glowed brighter than the sun.
I can't forget
Things you did
He never remembered what happened next, but he knew why he was here.
I've come to bring you hell
He unleashed his energy.
I've come to bring you hell
Light crashed into the beast, it screamed in agony.
I've come to bring you hell
Explosions of fire consumed the ground around him, but he would not back down.
I've come to bring you hell
Debris rained down upon him.
I've come to bring you hell
The beast was dead at last.
I've come to bring you hell
The light went out.
