The Last Stand

See him rise From land of flames Our destruction is at hand It is time to make a stand Now I face an awesome foe I will always stand my ground To this end my fate is bound This fight is mine and mine alone And there's no help from anyone His wrath burns With insane heat all his fury is unleashed There is no way to defeat The forces and the power that he wields My hand holds the horn so firm I am calm and ready to die Everything around me burns And I know that I will not survive See him rise From land of flames Destruction is at hand It is time to make a stand My death awaits I have no fear To this end my fate is bound Though I'm doomed I'll stand my ground This fight is mine and mine alone And there's no help from anyone I go forth to meet my doom But I will die in vain Perdition waits for everyone The world will die in flames With all my strength I run the horn Deep into his eye And as he swings his burning sword I die with a tired smile

And I make it To see you falling cause no one's gonna last Whats the purpose of holding on to things that slip away Ive created a shell to push all the selfish things away Secluded to myself I talk with no one but me In this shallow hole where I reside alive All the noises from the shadows Where are my friends that always said they would protect me In this shallow hole where Im alive Where are my friends that always said they would protect me Well I see you fall back and you slowly see you rise When your backs against the wall this time When your backs against the wall I'll help you up this time But not again I'll see this end I see the sadness in your eyes Just stay away (I've been trying) this time Whatever we had before Bittersweet memories This time Of what we should be I can't I see the sadness in your eyes Take your walk But I'm getting so tired Where are my friends that always said they would protect me And I make it To see you falling cause no one's gonna last Whats the purpose of holding on to things that slip away Ive created a shell to push all the selfish things away Secluded to myself I talk with no one but me

It was inevitable, I suppose, I mean, it'd been building up for weeks, No one could talk about anything else, just Going over it, and over and over it, Honest, I was sick to death of it all, But you know how people are about things like that, its all: What did he say, they did? The bastard. Im not stand it for that. And: Just who do they think they are, they can't push us around, can they lads?" In the end, I suppose there wasn't any choice. I blame then though, in my opinion, it was needle, needle, nag nag, They wouldn't let it drop, Because, they're not stupid, stands to reason, Never underestimate your enemies intelligence, as they say, Oh, they knew what was what, no doudt about it, dead cunning, them. Got what they wanted in the end to I suppose... We just couldn't resist. After, When it was all over and We'd picked ourselves up, Injuries all round but Nothing you could really show, We made the best of it, Like you do, you know, Wasn't as bad as all that, eh? They'll know who's boss now, eh? We showed 'em a thing or two..." That sort of thing, But, i dont know... Things weren't the same afterwards... I dont know, its not that we'd done anything we'd said we wouldn't, I just think, We hadn't imagined it would be that... dirty, We thought it'd be a bit of a joke, But it wasnt like that after a while, It was all set jumping through the hoops, We were the performing poodles grabbing at the bait, not them. It was all, well, Degrading, If you see what i mean... Oh, everyone rushed around congratulating us. You won, you won, it was great, you were great..." People just didn't seem to understand that we felt... So we just let on everything was fine... I don't know, All I can say is I I don't think we betrayed anyone, did we, eh? No, I dont think we let anyone down... Except maybe... Us.
