Beyond the Words

Hero

Here I stain this field red

Mark it with death.

My moves are vivacious

My dances, agile

My strength is the steel

That none may cut through.

Here I sculpt the shape

Of pale corpses

Whose bodies now stiff

And souls long forgotten

For without honor

They had no right amongst the living.

Here I am

As true as an artist

You’re worthless to me

For I am the painter of blades

Fear me now

My blade is my brush

Here I am worshipped

Where fear lives stronger than love.

I stand higher than lords

I live past the clouds;

It is here I am powerful

Proud and strong

Here on this battlefield

My name shall live on forever

Because here

I am hero.
