Combat

                



V1: My fists continue swinging

In a fight to keep my life

This brawl has no meaning

but I try to hold my head high



You are not my enemy

Yet you are not my friend

This combat is pointless

but my honor I still defend



An ego trip

between men everlasting

The route of all conflict

is usually only one mans idiocy



I tightly grip

My axe, as my eyes strain

I see you racing forth

I sprint ahead with no refrain



The blood and flesh

I tear from you

Disgusts me as I

vomit simply from the sight of you..



Cx2: Share with me

What you're feeling

As you lose blood, hope, and faith



I can see

That we agree

This is punishment we do not deserve to take...



V2:You quickly come in

With the hammer you hold

and deliver a blow to my side



The recoil is torment

as I tumbled to the ground

I feel the blood dripping from inside



I reluctantly rise

as you loom over me

you wait for my recollection

Just to seal my defeat



Your hammer falls once more

This time to finish the deed

I try with all I have

To move myself from your reach



Your weapon pounds the earth

I leap to my feet, the pain loud and clear

I withdraw from my adrenaline rush

As you quickly draw near



I raise my hand to your gaze

Stopping you in your path

I turn away from you and ready myself



I grasp my axe for one last time

I raise it above me, with tears in my eyes

and bring it down swiftly, ready for my voyage to hell...



Cx3.



V2: The blade is impelled swiftly

Into my gut

The blood rushes soundly

As my eyes shut



My passage is so comforting

After all I have been through here

Washed of the blood and sweat

Cleansed of my confusion and my fear



But as I expect to see

the dark light of the hades flame

I see the beautiful sunshine

and feel emotions that cannot be named



Heaven seemed so distant

so impossible to reach

And as I took my own life

I thought I had completed my own forsakening



But as all good people will

I have been rewarded

I have sacrificed myself to spare another

and my vision is no longer distorted...
