Is black as night
Black as my soulless heart
It bears the burden
Of many lives
But I don't feel remorse
I lent my sword
To anyone
Willing to pay the price
No regrets for
What I've done
A mercenary's life
But there I was
On battleground
Until I felt the jaws of death
Cut into my flesh
Defending old and weak
But I did not retreat
Now, here I lie
In my own blood
And strangers cry for me
I'm prepared to meet the gods
I wish they'd let me be
I don't deserve
Their sympathy
I know who I am
My soul is death and misery
I am an evil man
I rest in my blood
Soon I will face the gods
Strangers cry for me
I wish they'd let me be
Show no sympathy
She'd no tears for me
I know who I am
I am an evil man
I know who I am
I am an evil man
The blade I swing Is black as night Black as my soulless heart It bears the burden Of many lives But I don't feel remorse I lent my sword To anyone Willing to pay the price No regrets for What I've done A mercenary's life But there I was On battleground Until I felt the jaws of death Cut into my flesh Defending old and weak But I did not retreat Now, here I lie In my own blood And strangers cry for me I'm prepared to meet the gods I wish they'd let me be I don't deserve Their sympathy I know who I am My soul is death and misery I am an evil man I rest in my blood Soon I will face the gods Strangers cry for me I wish they'd let me be Show no sympathy She'd no tears for me I know who I am I am an evil man I know who I am I am an evil man Explain Request ×
