Child of Death

The Mist hides what we know is true
But only what it chooses to
It says my hands are smeared with blood
Child of Death must be the one

To cloud the world with his despair
To suck the spirit from the air
Child of Death; I walk alone
I've lost all that I once called home

Screaming
But the world is deaf
Pleading
I have nothing left
Crying
For who's in their sight
Dying
Because they are right

I feel alone and so afraid
I hear demons calling my name.
There's something wrong with you, they scream
They aren't so far off, it seems

My heart is twisted, heavy, wrong
It's like it knows I don't belong
The world is big, lovely to be
And yet, there is no place for me

Falling
Into what they think
Calling
Death to watch me sink
Tell me
How to numb my heart
Take me
I'm falling apart

Now the world is dark and cruel
It's not the game I thought it was
You can't start over when you lose
You pay the price; everyone does

How did everything go wrong?
Why do I no longer belong?
Tell me how to numb my heart
If not, I'll surely fall apart

Child of death
Count his last breath
Child of death; I walk alone

Screaming
But the world is deaf
Pleading
I have nothing left
Crying
For who's in their sight
Dying
Because they are right

Tell me
How to numb my heart
Take me
I'm falling apart
