Echoes of an Execution

Memories fall back into place
As I see a familiar face:
My dying father calls to me
As my comrades scream for more,
But I cannot hold his hand,
Drag him from that bloodied stand,
As I am no longer man,
Traded my soul to the beast.

I am now but shadow,
Turned into a beast.
I am now but shadow,
Turned into a beast.

Claim my soul!

No I cannot hold his hand,
Drag him from that bloodied stand,
As i am no longer man,
Traded my soul to the beast.

I wanna kill the beast within me,
Take back my soul and let my body be free.
I wanna kill the beast within me,
Take back my soul and let my body be free.

All the people that I cared for
I have been hunting for years,
But it was not love I sought
It was only death.

I wanna kill the beast within me,
Take back my soul and let my body be free.
I wanna kill the beast within me,
Take back my soul and let my body be free.
