Blemish

[Instrumental] [Verse 1] In lands where echoes haunt the silent cries, I wander through the mists of my own lies. Each victory, a shadow in the gleam, A hollow joy, where triumphs are but dreams. Beneath the weight of crowns I never sought, I battle foes with lessons dearly bought. In twilight realms, where whispered fates collide, My heart contends with pride that I must hide. [Instrumental] [Chorus] Why do these victories taste so bitter sweet? Chasing horizons that I can never meet. In every shadow, in every fleeting light, I find the strength to fight another fight. [Instrumental] [Verse 2] Once a blemish in my father’s sight, Born to bear the curse of endless night. With each step I take upon this cursed land, The echoes of his disdain expand. Haunted by the love I’ve never known, Through broken fields of bone, I walk alone. Yet in the shadows of my deepest fears, Rises the resolve from all my silent tears. [Instrumental] [Chorus] Why do these victories taste so bitter sweet? Chasing horizons that I can never meet. In every shadow, in every fleeting light, I find the strength to fight another fight. [Instrumental] [Verse 3] In the silence of a storm yet to cease, I forge my path, seeking fleeting peace. The embers of a will that won't decay, Illuminate the night, outshine the day. Through broken promises and shattered dreams, I find the seams where light of hope still gleams. For every end, a beginning anew, In darkest trials, my spirit born anew. [Instrumental] [Chorus] Why do these victories taste so bitter sweet? Chasing horizons that I can never meet. In every shadow, in every fleeting light, I find the strength to fight another fight. [Instrumental] [Bridge] Whispers of the ancients stir the air, Secrets veiled in darkness, laid bare. Am I but a pawn in this cosmic game, Or is there a purpose to my name? Amidst the ruins of fallen heroes' pleas, I grasp the threads of destinies. These tattered wings, yet they yearn to soar, Above the chaos, to find what I fight for. [Pre-Chorus] Every tear shed, a lesson learned, In the fires of struggle, my spirit burned. Yet through the ash, my hope remains, Fueled by the past, my future reclaims. [Instrumental] [Chorus] Why do these victories leave me cold inside? Chasing shadows where I can only hide. In every victory, the echo of my plight, I find the darkness overwhelming light. [Silence] [End] [Outro] Fighting, never-ending, Always pain, never mending. I feel like dying, time after time, I'm so weary, so tired of this climb. [Slowly fading instrumental] [Stop] [End]
