Caliban's Lament

[Verse] Buried deep within my soul A forgotten story yet to be told In the shadows I silently roam Caliban Lost and all alone Searching for purpose in this war In this twisted world I'm scorned The memories haunt me They won't let go Caliban A ghost in the afterglow [Verse 2] Fragments of my past are scattered wide A broken mirror reflecting my fight In the depths I tread Darkness surrounds Caliban The forgotten echoes resound [Verse 3] Scars bear witness to anguished cries As Caliban's howls pierce the night skies Haunted by ghosts, no chance to arise Will this shadow ever know the light's reprise? [Bridge] Trapped in a labyrinth, damned to roam Grasping at faded memories, fate's cruel tome An endless internal war, a battle gnawing at the bone Is there solace to be found, or forever to remain alone? [Post-Bridge Chorus] From the ashes, can rebirth be achieved? This wretched existence, forever perceived As an outcast, a hunger for truth to be retrieved Caliban emerges, the ashen gloom relieved [Chorus] Disavowed, disowned by this realm Cast as a pariah, at the hellish helm Yet defiance flares, fury's overwhelming swell The searing resilience that threatens to expel [Outro] Howls dissipating, fading into the night As shadows reclaim Caliban's endless plight A solitary figure waging the eternal fight Until the forsaken tale is finally brought to light
