Ending the Nightmare (song) (unfinished)
(Intro/verse- slow)
In the dead of the night
Stars pulsing overhead
I smile a little before standing up
And go over what she said
She said you didn't need to do that
As I walk through the gate
There's nothing more I've ever wanted
But I said it too late
(Chorus- sped up significantly)
So I head to my right and prepare for the night
Adversity and accomplishment forming into light
There nothing this world can throw at me that I can't smite
Choosing arms carefully to prep for this fight
(Slow, then fast)
Grab my bow. The accumulation of all the times I didn't have the range for you to hear
Sling the arrows. Each one forged from the steel of doubt that's been cast my way.
Don the armor of faith that hasn't failed me even when I've failed myself.
And the ink of Phoenix fire coursing in my veins
(Verse 2- slow)
Her words still echo, fresh in my mind
As I turn to the maze
I wanted to say I had the time of my life with you
Starry eyes shining through all of the haze
I pause and look up
Overwhelmed by the infinite pattern
Taking a deep breath
I think of what they spell before I enter the cavern
(Chorus- sped up significantly)
So I head down the halls, to where the beast calls
My strategy already forming as it echoes the walls
This storm is gonna scream making the rest look like squalls
Whispers of failures no one else recalls
(Slow, then fast)
The beast says without love you're bankrupt, with it everything else falls into place
Eyes on the prize, nothing else matters but you'll gain it all
Move quickly, as you tread on mosaic tiles of your brother's shattered hopes
They'll get theirs, only a moment after, you just gotta run son
(Bridge)
So The Bard goes into battle, armed and prepared
whistling a haunting tune as the dragon's roar goes down
He sings of eternity, and heavens infinite for all
For one, for all, gentlemen, this is too small a town
In the dead of the night
Stars pulsing overhead
I smile a little before standing up
And go over what she said
She said you didn't need to do that
As I walk through the gate
There's nothing more I've ever wanted
But I said it too late
(Chorus- sped up significantly)
So I head to my right and prepare for the night
Adversity and accomplishment forming into light
There nothing this world can throw at me that I can't smite
Choosing arms carefully to prep for this fight
