Bilingual
My pale face glows in the light of fire
My hollow eyes see but cannot see
I stare deep into the glowing inferno
The loss I feel is breaking me
I heard their screams
Through flaming walls
Walls I could not tear down
I could not help them
I'd been away for two full years
Only to return too late to save them
Helplessly I watched my life go up in flames
Pull the sword from the glowing fire
And hammer-beat it on the anvil
Forging it with rage and hate
I will seal my enemy's fate
ย
I ingrave the blade with magic runes
And summon gods by sacrifice in blood
Pure blue hate shines within this sword
This magic sword will cut only once
ย
No sword has ever been like this one
"The Avenger" is its name
ย
Now, my sworn enemy
Vengeance will belong to me
A year has gone by
Now, my sworn enemy
It's your turn to die
It's your turn to die
Die!
ย
To die, die!
Die!
Die!
Die, die, die, die, die!
The sword cuts through his throat
His head tumbled to the ground
The headless body lays gently down
Down to sleep in a pool of blood
The Avenger has lost its shine
The magic is all drained
Dull and useless it rests in my hand
Its purpose is soon fulfilled
ย
Now hate is gone but emptiness remains
So I turn the blade around
And run it through my stomach veins
And I fall to the ground
ย
To the ground
