LP2187

Vendetta sharp as steel

Anger surges through my body

A piercing, fiery light

Illuminating my riled eyes

As daytime turns to night

 

They tore my family apart

A wound that will not heal

Revenge, that’s what I need right now

Vendetta sharp as steel

 

There was a life with my brother

The whispers of a past

Because he is gone forever

This darkness is to last

 

But now I will not show mercy

Instead I will journey

And stop until I’ve killed them all

When vengeance I can see




I shiver and I quake

My heart is filled with doubt

With every step I take

My brother still cries out

 

I hear him talking loud

Like he’s really right there

He says that he is proud

That death was only fair

 

He speaks of ending pain

A path that isn\'t fear

When it began to rain

He seemed to disappear

 

I told him I’m not scared

Through the streets I walked on

He couldn’t be repaired

I realised he was gone




I was only an empty shell

Wanting to find someone to tell

The truth wrapped its cloak around me

Forgiveness had always been key

 

Pursuing my brother’s shadow

When he was too far to follow

The grief and terror in my eyes

As I push through the fearsome lies

 

So I let it all go and fell

On my knees I could only smell

The burning of old memories

Smoke billowing in harmonies

 

I’d lost everything I had known

When really the faults were my own

This was only the inception

So I sought out my redemption
