"I went to sleep
Without knowing if I'd ever wake up
I wasn't made for the world I left behind
I was incompatible
But the world changed"

Where I was, not one to follow
You gave me something I did not believe
Was ever meant for me
Oh, my god, I

I am grateful, you know that
But I have nothing to give in return for this
My life for what?
What else was I good for?

You know me, I can't be redeemed
What do you want from me?
You took me out of play
And now you choose to free me again?
I have no cause, I don't believe
I kill, that's all I know
I am the villain of this story
What else could I ever be?

My penance weaved into this conflict
This hidden war, I can't believe
You gave me back
What I thought for sure lost

But I don't see what I can do here
What is it you want me to be for you?
My life for what?
What else was I good for?

Even though I can't feel what you feel
I understand and we move forward
Better than alone, yeah, I am
I'm so much better by your side
Than lost in night

I have my own reasons
But I'll believe for you

You know me, I can't be redeemed
What do you want from me?
You took me out of play
And now you choose to free me again?
I have no cause, I don't believe
I kill, that's all I know
I am the villain of this story
What else could I ever?

You know me, I can't be redeemed
What do you want from me?
You took me out of play
And now you choose to free me again?
I have no cause, I don't believe
I kill, that's all I know
I am the villain of this story
What else could I ever be?

You know me, I can't be redeemed
What do you want from me?
You took me out of play
And now you choose to free me again?
I have no cause, I don't believe
I kill, that's all I know
I am the villain of this story
What else could I ever?

You know me, I can't be redeemed
What do you want from me?
You took me out of play
And now you choose to free me again?
I have no cause, I don't believe
I kill, that's all I know
I am the villain of this story
What else could I ever be?

I had set eyes on you
When they made their move
It finally dawned on me that night
When they came for you

This was all part of His design
I was supposed find you
And take out those
Who attempt to take you

I can't see
Why I am here
If not to be
What you can never

I will play my part
For Him, for you, and for us all
I am the one
The perfect dark, the enemy
I'll tear out their hearts
Bring the fall, the end of all
I am the one
The perfect dark, the enemy

If you wanna know what I am
You've got doubts, I get that
I was someone different but then He came
He got me out

You have nothing to fear from me
I would never harm you
I'll always do
What He wants me to and

I can't see
Why I am here
If not to be
What you can never

Now you break my heart
For Him, for you, and for us all
I am the one
The perfect dark, the enemy
I'll tear out their hearts
Bring the fall, the end of all
I am the one
The perfect dark, the enemy

I can stay, I can leave
But what if you need me?
You want peace of mind
Or do you want to be alive?
He left me here because he knew
That you would need me
And what I can do

I will play my part
For Him, for you, and for us all
I am the one
The perfect dark, the enemy
I'll tear out their hearts
Bring the fall, the end of all
I am the one
The perfect dark, the enemy

I will play my part
For Him, for you, and for us all
I am the one
The perfect dark, the enemy
I'll tear out their hearts
Bring the fall, the end of all
I am the one
The perfect dark, the enemy

What was is done
I seek no forgiveness
I won't claim this day as ours
Though one less hero to watch out for
And we still live

We are as we have always been
It's as if only now
This got real for you
This is no game
I know all too well
This was what I lived
This was all that I knew
Once then

Not everything
Has to mean something
They found us in spite of me
And they know now that we won't go
Not quietly

We are as we have always been
It's as if only now
This got real for you
This is no game
I know all too well
This was what I lived
This was all that I knew
Once then

What was is done

This got real for you
This is no game
I know all too well
This was what I lived
This was all that I knew
Once then

You know that you are epic
In the world where you escape
Skills are honed with severity
As your enemies despair

Why do you believe
That you are less than that in this outfit?
Trust me you have trained
For this for years

So no, this is not the time
For you to lay in wait
You have battled a million times
Now pony up for war

Death and brutal injury
Are all legit concerns of course
But weighed up and surpassed
By the rewards

Why don't you play it like a game?
Ooh, if that's all you know
Why not display some fucking mad skills?
(Bring it on right now)

Our reality is broken now, ooh
We are forgotten, we are lost
And we're disconnected
Put on your game-face
And reset that switch inside
Descend your throne of games
And stand with us with pride

You know that you are epic
In the world where you escape
Skills are honed with severity

(Bring it on right now)

Out of nowhere, too fast, too fast
Go, run now, I'll hold them back
I know you don't know, how could you?
But I have seen these things before

Meet our generation zero
The soulless, the first of my kind
They were given tremendous power but
The trial destroyed their minds

So who is in control?
Who could ever wield such a weapon?
And how do I fight them all?

You, face me and deal with me
Beast or not, you will bleed for me
I will make you suffer in kind
You, chase me and dance with me
I will take most of you with me
Before I fall, before I go down

Forced to this life as I was
And there the similarities end
I just don't know, I just don't know how
I don't think I can win

I suppose a fitting end
I give you one last gift but
You will have to promise me that you
Will live to see another day

All I ask of you
Is just get away
Wait
No, not that way
No, don't

You, face me and deal with me
Beast or not, you will bleed for me
I will make you suffer in kind
You, chase me and dance with me
I will take most of you with me
Before I fall, before I go down

Instrumental

We were young and tough and serious
And the world our enemy
But now is different
We are all that stands between

I see you've met my new pet
Tell your crew to back away
They don't want that kind of hurt
Trust me

You went on alone, now it's time
For you to come back
In from the cold again
We stand alone but we are
Like you once were
Warriors who heard the call for all

It was easy being fearless
When the pain was never real
But now is different
We are all that stands between

The end of the world that we know
And what we have right here
We need you in this war
Trust me

You went on alone, now it's time
For you to come back
In from the cold again
We stand alone but we are
Like you once were
Warriors who heard the call for all

Whoa-oh
Whoa-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh
Whoa-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Used to be a single voice
That vanished in a crowd
Vague just like a distant sun
When hidden by the clouds

Found a way to surface
And to speak my truth aloud
Be powerful
Stand fast and proud

"So, you're some kinda
Engineered to be a badass"
"Something like that"
"So the fight wasn't fair"
"Tsc, there's no such thing"

You went on alone, now it's time
For you to come back
In from the cold again
We stand alone but we are
Like you once were
Warriors who heard the call for all

You went on alone, now it's time
For you to come back
In from the cold again
We stand alone but we are
Like you once were
Warriors who heard the call for all

Whoa-oh
Whoa-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh
Whoa-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh
Whoa-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh
Whoa-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

I was at a crossroads
And I was done
But seems as though
I still stand second to none
Even now

Fought my fate and it set me free
With nought but darkness in heart
Mark this day and what I decree
I will show the world who we are

I have this soul now inside me
I need to

I have been asleep
For so long
For so long
Whatever happened?
Now the world
Is coming down around me
Brought back to life again
By allies of days gone by
Whatever was is now a lie
A lie

I was always faster than everyone
I don't need a weapon
Don't need my gun
To show you how

Fought my fate and it set me free
With nought but darkness in heart
Mark this day and what I decree
I will show the world who we are

I have this soul now inside me
I need to

I have been asleep
For so long
For so long
Whatever happened?
Now the world
Is coming down around me
Brought back to life again
By allies of days gone by
Whatever was is now a lie
A lie

I'm trying to hang on
My soul is weak but I will be strong
We are all where we belong
And I need you all to be
Right here with me

Don't want these final days of mine
To have meant nothing
And if I should die
At least I died for something
Don't want these final days of mine
To all go wasted
I will no longer stay in line
(Stay in line)

Fought my fate and it set me free
With nought but darkness in heart
Mark this day and what I decree
I will show the world who we are

(I need to)

I have been asleep
For so long
For so long
Whatever happened?
Now the world
Is coming down around me
Brought back to life again
By allies of days gone by
Whatever was is now a lie
A lie

I have been asleep
For so long
For so long
Whatever happened?
Now the world
Is coming down around me
Brought back to life again
By allies of days gone by
Whatever was is now a lie
A lie

You know by now I'm not the one
But I can be the one you need
What you believe
I will defeat the greater evil
Make them bleed

I'm so done with complacency
I've picked my allies and my enemy
Made my choice
And now I stand with you
I'll see it through

I thrive of murder
But a fight is still a fight and I
Suppose I might as well fight for what is right
To make it up this time

Suppress that darkness in me
What I once was and would be were it not
For those who still hold on to me
Those who would call themselves allies of mine
Brothers, sisters, and friends of mine
Until the end of time

So what if I am not the one?
Whatever difference does it make?
You still believe
I'll defeat them anyway

That I will break their hold on everything
I've picked my allies and my enemy
Made my choice
And now I stand with you
I'll see it through

It fuels the fire in my eyes
Promise me that we will kill them all
No other justice will suffice

I thrive of murder
But a fight is still a fight and I
Suppose I might as well fight for what is right
To make it up this time

Suppress that darkness in me
What I once was and would be were it not
For those who still hold on to me
Those who would call themselves allies of mine
Brothers, sisters, and friends of mine
Until the end of time

And now that you are here with me again
Where do we go?
I failed you, I lost one of them
I'm so, so sorry
But you left me all alone

I thrive of murder
But a fight is still a fight and I
Suppose I might as well fight
For what is right to make it up this time

Suppress that darkness in me
What I once was and would be were it not
For those who still hold on to me
Those who would call themselves allies of mine
Brothers, sisters, and friends of mine
Until the end of time

Those who would call themselves allies of mine
Brothers, sisters, and friends of mine
Until the end of time

I don't believe my eyes
Is it really you?
Are you really here?
Is it really you?

You were dead and gone
But now here you are
Here you are

But you are different now, I see
They have turned you into what I used to be
More a phantom than the old me, really
And you have come to fight with me?
I wish this would not be
I wish it wasn't up to me to end you
But even so, here we are
No reason, no regret, no words to say
So be it

You look so different in this light
I see you
As if for the first time ever

I will full stand with you in this fight
But you and I are through
I know now that I am better than you

You know it's true
Get the fuck out of my way, old man

The world around us cast in flames
Gods will rise and then fall again
In a light that fades and dies away
Do you feel?
We arrive at the final seal
The last of us and the God Machine
In a light that fades and dies away

If only you knew what it meant to me
To see you now
Your own wings extended and proud

I wanted you to find your own truth
Your why and how
And now I can free you
From what you've been through

You know it's true
I release you, so go now, my child

The world around us cast in flames
Gods will rise and then fall again
In a light that fades and dies away
Do you feel?
We arrive at the final seal
The last of us and the God Machine
In a light that fades and dies away

The world around us cast in flames
Gods will rise and then fall again
In a light that fades and dies away
Do you feel?
We arrive at the final seal
The last of us and the God Machine
In a light that fades and dies away

The world around us cast in flames
Gods will rise and then fall again
In a light that fades and dies away
Do you feel?
We arrive at the final seal
The last of us and the God Machine
In a light that fades and dies away

Instrumental

The sequence has begun
It's too late
The machine comes alive
It's awake

What'll happen if I don't?
What if I can't or I won't go?
And what awaits me beyond
Awaits me beyond

All my angels are gone
I'm alone
What is left for me here?
I don't know

What'll happen if I don't?
What if I can't or I won't go?
I see no other way out of this
I see no other way

Gather all who remain here
This will be an epic display
Touch the fire's embrace
And die

I've no fear, I have no remorse
I will do this for you and because
I wanna see how it ends
I wanna know what awaits
Beyond these walls

I have lost so much
I don't know what else there is
When is it enough?
I can't quit, I won't give up

This is not my end
I know that for certain now
This is something else
A new day, a different self
