War

from Among the Swarm by mrmoth

lyrics

For her grief
For her tears
For all the lost years
For your pain
For regret
For all that I forget
For the word
For the deed
For all that I concede
For despair
For the doubt
My hands are reaching out
For breath
Unto death
For the only step left
For her daughter
In the water
The lamb to the slaughter
For my finger
On the trigger
For the eyes looking eager
For desire
Turned to fire
For a soul climbing higher
For demands
From a hand
That she would never understand
For your skill
In the kill
For her broken down will
For her name
That you stained
With the whole of your shame
From my core
That you tore
My intentions are...

WAR

And dead inside
I walked to the shore
Pulled my love close
To my chest once more
All for her heart
I had given her mine
They wanted at me so
They pushed her aside
I knew the truth
There would be no retreat
Once more in the ether
We were to meet
I put the gun
Up to my eye
Pulled back the hammer
And then went outside...
