Autumn Tears - The Battle, Act II lyrics

(Deceit: ) Now must choose O' wretched soul, for thyself, thou must choose Choose to take or be taken, to be tortured by thy Sorrow by giving into thy reluctance and pity Go then, if thou must, to die a miserable wretch within Thy blackened kingdom (Benevolence: ) Listen not to the lies of false humanity Only through purification of thy spirit may rest be found Anger shall not soothe thy ever aching heart The only promises kept are ones made from thyself (Wisdom: ) Take now this finality of injustice... I shall offer thee no mercy To rid thyself of false identity thou must free this soul dammed by thee Thy child to be released by life taken from thee And this soul of one so full of everlasting youth shall be returned unto me Dare to awaken my vengeance with thy defiance To this your d**h in life I shall forever condemn thee Heed this last warning, my pitiful soul For when I vanquish thy breed... they shall all become mine (Child: ) Take not my life, o beautiful earthen mother For now I shall retain my youth granted from thee forever As I was taken I now take and wish to remain in thy shadow Take not my life, for together we shall unveil this fragile earth (Deceit: ) Heed the words spoken, seek no longer an answer If it be not enough, then for thy pride only bow to none Let those who would take thy only possession from thee Be cast in amber flames and eternal darkness (The Beautiful: ) My mind, a tangled ma** of utter confusion The conquest for my soul, a struggle tearing me apart If I must act to rid myself of the scourge within me Then by and by my soul be damned, so it shall be done (Benevolence: ) If thou dost truly love thy child and whish to cleanse thy soul of sin Thy immortal life extinguished and all thy children to find rebirth Thy flesh must remain within the earth while thy soul shall await judgement (Deceit: ) Be not a fool, for thy slumber may wait and remain indifferent Thy mask shall fall and then turn to dust Shouldst thou renounce thyself and venture into the realm of light Thy chains shall remain forever
