Divided By Malice

I lie in this darkness with tears in my eyes,

I weep in silence, but in my heart I scream.

The path that I must take, it breaks my heart,

I fear I'll never see my love again.

I saw the hunger in his eyes as he dragged her away,

The beast that had betrayed me. Oh how I hate him.

Seconds lasted for ages. Did I just hear her scream?

He'll know the meaning of pain when I am done with him.

Torn by grief, I was left for dead

And for a moment I was.

I followed their steps through the wilderness

Determined to take back what is mine.

I wandered the earth driven by grief

Until I finally tracked them down.

I was shocked when I saw a glimpse of her bruised face;

All the love she had for me, he had beaten it out.

I could feel the fire of vengeance burn in my heart.

When I saw her lips kissing his, I could not restrain myself.

I only saw the fear in his eyes as I tightened my grip.

He thought he had killed me, but now I stood before him.

I drew my blade to cut this bastard down,

But my arm was held back by a familiar hand.

Instead of killing him, I cut off his thumbs,

No longer will he wield the sword against my sons.

I would have killed him if she didn't believe his lies,

But he will live down in shame 'til the day he dies.

And now I had my first vengeance

I must hold of the storm,

Before I find myself a way

To win back her love for me.
