There's a Demon in your headspace
A Curse
From ancient times
I see his fires rage behind
Your tired, infernal eyes
-
-
Through centuries of carnage
My spirit took a stand
With Courage
And with Sacred Blade
I've fought him at your hand
-
-
And yet I did not see before
The one whom he had slain
The one who has now but endured
Ten thousand years of pain
-
-
I cannot seek to bring to mind
The horrors you have seen
But I implore you
I was blind
Forgive me my failing
-
-
My Hero Spirit did not see
The anguish in your eye
Nor did it sense your deep lament
Each time we watched you die
-
-
Instead we would but celebrate
As silently you drowned
And sensed we not your grief or hurt
But pray
We sense it now
-
-
Listen, here
At once be still
Rest now in this blossom
For the song that once could heal your soul
Has not yet been forgotten
-
-
And so I play this runic verse
The Song to Heal your Soul
And lift your spirit of this curse
Release you
From his hold
-
-
Go now
Shaman King of Old
Your kinship waits for thee
Not in this world
But in the next
They will be there
You'll see
-
-
As for Demise, the Demon Lord
Let him not cast your mind
You've served his curse
Ten thousand years
You have served your time
-
-
Let his burden fall to me
I'll be his machine
Go now to your family
For now yoursoul
Is free
