Scent of leather
The flick of the blade
Silent footsteps moving through the night
A tear allowed to fall
Steel that sinks so deep
Hush, do not take flight
Dear one, let me hold you close
As your life force flows
Crimson rivers over my hands
Oh how I loved you so
Once when we were free
Once when we were meant to be
But my love, you know how it is
The assassin's creed
Does not allow for fancies such as this
Eyes glassing over
Just another hit
A dirty stain on the dust
A glove that did not fit
I'm sorry my dear
I hope you know this
So sleep the longest sleep
Amongst darkness find bliss
Me, I'll fight another day
Maybe one day I'll see
Look into that mirror
And find the lost part of me
I am sorry my dear
But I will try to forget
To not do so is death
To not do so, is to regret
My pain will keep for now
My heart hardened to stone
I shall not love from this day forth
An assassin must be alone.
