Exiled

This was my home.
And all I ever wanted.
Was to protect my family.

Now they are gone.
And I am haunted.
By this insanity.

Lost to the fire.
And broken glass.
Oh, my humanity.

I have no desire.
Let my troubles pass.
To waltz in eternity.

Oh, exiled.
Onto the fringe of this city.
Oh, exiled.
I barely exist, but still I'm free.

Cold wind whips.
Around my face.
Chilling my skin.

Parting my lips.
This freezing place.
Seeping within.

Ghosts of the past.
Reaching through time.
Sensing their presence.

If it's the last.
Night of my life.
Come get my essence.

Oh, exiled.
Onto the fringe of this city.
Oh, exiled.
I barely exist, but still I'm free.

Exiled!
On the eve of victory.
Exiled!
I will resume my ministry.
Exiled!
I will forget what I am not.
Exiled!
I will survived by the power of God.

Come to me, spirits of anger and pain.
Horrors I can't contain.
I will set you free.

Hear my call, monsters beyond all sight.
Panicking in the heights.
I will not fall.

And you will remember my head of flame.
My lonely name.
But I swear I am not insane.

I'll live forever and win this game.
I'm not tame.
No fear, I will always remain.
And one day I will return again.

Oh, exiled.
Onto the fringe of this city.
Oh, exiled.
I barely exist, but still I'm free.
Oh, exiled.
Waiting beyond your banners.
Oh, exiled.
Not like before, I'm the master.

My hopes and chains will bind my heart.
Tie me down to the dark.
And everything that I love I have watched burn away.

In red I run and am torn apart.
But I remember the spark.
Now I can sing without wondering where to stay.

Returning from exile.
This is the last mile.
I will find my place at last.
