Dry Fisted
Embers of Betrayal: Unveiling the Painful Odyssey of 'Dry Fisted'
Lyrics
I wrote every word
I personally authored every expression
That I could ever say
All possible words I could articulate
Every empty promise
Each unfulfilled commitment
You chose to break
Choices you made to shatter
We wanted an empire
We aspired for a grand realm
All we got were the ashes I gathered
Received only remnants and remnants I collected
The scraps of what we had left
The remnants of our former possession
They were better
Those remnants were superior
Left to the abyss
Best left to the abyss
And still I gather
Continuously I accumulate
At your rotten altar
At your corrupted sacred place
To pledge allegiance to
To swear loyalty to
My pain and my suffering
My anguish and my torment
And I still gather at your altar
Yet again I assemble at your sacred place
I prayed to a goddess
I beseeched a deity
Who loved my suffering
Who reveled in my pain
I prayed to a goddess
I implored a deity
Deaf, dumb, and blind
Insensitive, mute, and sightless
My chest is far to hollow
My chest devoid of substance
All lessons come in time
Wisdom comes with the passage of time
You left me dry fisted
You abandoned me with empty hands
In my hubris I thought you were mine
In my arrogance, I believed you belonged to me
You are no one
You have no identity
You are no one
-You are no one
-You are no one
