So fragile a gift,
yet squandered, alas,
on a spirit too light
for the fright to be faced
Shunned and condemned
by the truth of his sight,
piercing so fiercely
the fearsome young mind
day and night
As long as I remember
I’ve been spat upon
and cursed
A bastard child,
my blood defiled,
in loathing I was nursed
Often I`ve sworn
I saw faces,
twisted and torn
‘midst the crowd
the beasts stood out,
for only me to see
These visions’ torment,
all the fear and disbelief
A sordid brood in solitude,
my beating heart
my mother’s grief
My second sight
made me her blight,
so she abandoned me
Sold me off
to court and king,
where I was forced
to dance and sing
A jester’s crown to wear
Merry seemed the sight
of my despair
Chorus:
Though my name
be never known
Let this tale of mine be told
And what hate
has made of me
Of repentance and demise
Of my sentence that is life
Of a Demon Divine
‘tween these gates of hell
I am damned to dwell
‘midst guised demons
and the worst of men
alone I stand
My bride be a maiden,
so noble and fair
I’ll be a courtly knight
Entwined in love,
we’ll bid farewell to despair
Anguish be vanquished
by pride (x2)
By morning’s rays
my mirage decays
My dreams and fate
both laid to waste
Dare not fade!
To god I pray
Don’t let me face
another day in hate
Chorus
Demon Divine
