slechtvalk - forsaken lyrics
my mind is filled with visions of death-
i’ve abandoned them to their doom
i’ve fled the battlefield at the sign of defeat
what will become of me?
we’ve walked into a trap, blinded by our pride
all the brothers i have known died at my side
and now i hide
i don’t know whom i fear most
our enemy, or my father the king
i dare not face him again
what will become of me?
too lost in my own sorrow i didn’t notice the changing surroundings
can’t remember how i got here, i think i have lost my way
i have been led astray from the path that i was following
the sorry state i am in, it feels so unreal
i fear that the final victory will not be mine
this burden causes my feet to stumble
like i am walking to my grave
i wonder if i’ll ever find my way back home again?
will i live to see my children become better men?
the bitter tears i’ve shed have clouded my vision
all i see is darkness and death on the path that lies before me
i would cut out my eyes if that would make it all go away
but i think this sorrow is mine to bear until the day i die
forsaken in this hostile land
broken to the core
this sorrow is mine
until the day i die!
i’ve long searched for death, but couldn’t find it, save by my own hand
but my pride stays my hand, i will go on as long as i can
though my heart yearns for hope, i’m blinded by my stubbornness
i fail to see my own path leads to emptiness
torn by guilt, broken to the core, don’t i deserve more?
i should have followed your rule, oh father, i feel like a fool
