Restless soul
Perpetual dilemma

End your pain, change the page
make him suffer death in life
he took away your innocence
now it´s your chance to take his life
I lay alone hearing your angry scream
I just want you to leave and forget
but a soft voice inside my head
remembers me the beginning of all my pain
the root of all my fears and my sins
its reaching deeper and its hurting me

As the sun rised, I swore myself that someday he will pay

End your pain change the page
make him suffer death in life
he took away your innocence
now it´s your chance to take his life

So now you're back and speaking to me
Wearing your best face and your sweatest words
my heart and soul are forever gone
i wrote a final poem for you with my blood
you´ll never find the sweet peace again
until you set all my memories free

Revenge it's my way of forgiveness, and I promise I will forgive him

End your pain, change the page
make him suffer death in life
he took away your innocence
now it's your chance to take his life





At last my soul embraces rest, for that his blood is my rebirth
