Lyrics
You take my breath away...
You have a captivating effect on me...
But Ill never again taste your lips
However, I will never experience the sensation of kissing you again.
As fate keeps me locked away
Fate keeps me separated and confined.
I must close my eyes to see your face
To visualize your face, I must close my eyes.
Emptiness has darkened my eyes
Emptiness has clouded my vision.
As I hopelessly beg for my life to end
I desperately plead for my life to end.
...tell my why...
...explain to me why...
My iron eyes tell the tale
My resolute gaze narrates a story.
Heroes always pay in their blood
Heroes inevitably pay the price in their own blood.
I can be only this
I can only be this, whatever "this" signifies.
I see the fear growing in their lost eyes
I observe fear growing in the eyes of the lost.
My purpose is so clear...I am the ax
My purpose is evident – I am the executor.
I am the ax and this is why I must not fear the end
I am the executor, and that's why I must not fear the end.
And when I'm gone will you forget me?
Will you forget me when I'm gone?
Pen wears its steady course across the page
A pen follows its unwavering path across the page.
Resigned to its designs to take the hive
Committed to its purpose of taking the hive (perhaps a metaphor for destiny).
Emptiness has darkened my eyes
Emptiness continues to cloud my vision.
As I hopelessly beg for my life to end
I desperately plead for my life to end (repeated theme).
...tell my why...
...explain to me why...
I wish I could make you see, I wish I could make you see through the pain
I wish I could help you see through the pain.
Through the end, I wish I could make you see the greater purpose that
Through the end, I wish you could see the greater purpose I must serve.
I have to serve...no one else will fight...no one else will fight...so I must
No one else is willing to fight, so I must.
My iron eyes tell the tale
My resolute gaze narrates a story (repeated theme).
Heroes always pay in their blood
Heroes inevitably pay the price in their own blood (repeated theme).
I can be only this
I can only be this, whatever "this" signifies (repeated theme).
...I am the ax...
...I am the executor...
Fear has been lost to faith
Fear has been replaced by faith.
The darkest night has come before the end
The darkest night precedes the inevitable end.
Of which we must prevail
We must prevail despite the challenges.
Amidst the pitch of steel we shall arise
Amidst the clash of steel, we will rise.
I will destroy all those who oppose me
I am determined to destroy all who oppose me.
My iron eyes tell the tale
My resolute gaze narrates a story (repeated theme).
Heroes always pay in their blood
Heroes inevitably pay the price in their own blood (repeated theme).
I can be only this
I can only be this, whatever "this" signifies (repeated theme).
I see the fear growing in there...
I observe fear growing in them...
