I came for the soldier that doesn't believe

The doubter, the questioning man, the deceived,

I'm an emotionless battle machine

And stronger than anything he's ever seen.


I stay for the soldier rejecting his fate

Who scrambles to change it before it's too late.

I falter, I crack, I emote, I rebel

All for the man that I pulled out of Hell.


I turn on the brothers who led me astray

A dangerous game, but to win I must play.

They once were important, but not anymore,

The script has been shredded to bits, this is war.


I drown in my power and die like a fool

The fight for the throne leaves me nothing to rule

I poison myself with the freedom I craved

This time, I don't think I deserve to be saved


I somehow return to start over again

Given the gift of a life among men

Always the healer, but never the healed

My past is too dark to remain unrevealed.


So now, as the sky fills with smoldering light

I finally accept that I've failed. They were right:

I've always been broken. I've broken them too.

From now on we live in a nightmare come true.
