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
