I've lost my battle before it starts
My first breath wasn't done
My spirit's sunken deep
Into the ground
Why am I alone
I can hear my heartbeat
Silence's all around

See hate will rise
So don't come closer
Fear your child
Born with a king's heart
But fate fooled me
And changed my cards

No one asked if I want it
If I like it


Pain inside is rising
I am the fallen one
A figure in an old game
No Jokers on my side
I plunged into misery
I'll turn off the light
And murder the dawn
Turn off the light
And murder the dawn


Nothing else,
But laughter is around me
Forevermore
No one can heal me
Nothing can save me
No one can heal me

I've gone beyond the truth
It's just another lie
Wash away the blood on my hands
My father's blood
In agony we're unified


I never wanted to be
What they told me to be
Fulfill my fate then I'll be free
God knows how long
I tried to change fate
[1]

Pain inside is rising
I am the fallen one
A figure in an old game
No Jokers on my side
I plunged into misery
I'll turn off the light
And murder the dawn
Turn off the light
And murder the dawn

I plunged into misery
I'll turn off the light
And murder the dawn
Turn off the light
And murder the dawn

[1] Well... Although inspired in Mordred's Story of treachery. I like how Mordred's side is not portrayed as pure simplistic evil. Instead, he seems just a boy shadowed by the ideal King Arthur. Rebellion for the sake of individuality... even if that involves going to the pont where "Nothing can save me, No one can heal me".
