Defeat of Despair - The Last Hangmen

like lightning it struck my mind

that dark voice from the past

blaming me for wasted years

chasing dreams that will not last

my timeglass is running out of sand

a black veil darkens the sky

fate was never in my hands

and all the shadows seemed to cry:

take me away from here!

light me a new path!

my last hope died so long ago,

please restore it now!

please restore it now!

the sun and the stars had left my world

I was blinded by ignorance so cold

my ways never crossed happyness

my steps led nowhere in the end

I craved for salvation this night

at the horizon a light was shining bright

my eyes fell on it and I knew

that my time until now was thrown away

your light has guided me

back to myself I’ve found

dreams are never in vain

so I finally rose from my knees

with a reborn soul

touched the luck for just one second

and escaped from the cold.

and escaped from the cold

and escaped from the cold

my last hope died long ago

but you’ve restored it now!
