Divided By Malice

I lie in this darkness with tears in my eyes
I weep in silence, but in my heart I scream
The path that I must take, it breaks my heart
I fear i'll never see my love again.

I saw the hunger in his eyes
As he dragged her away
The beast that had betrayed me
Oh how I hate him
Seconds lasted for ages
Did I just hear her scream?
He'll know the meaning of pain
When I am done with him.

Torn by grief, I was left for dead
And for a moment I was.

I followed their steps through the wilderness
Determined to take back what is mine
I wandered the earth driven by grief
Until I finally tracked them down.

I was shocked when I saw
A glimpse of her bruised face
All the love she had for me
He had beaten it out.

I could feel the fire of vengeance burn in my heart
When I saw her lips kissing his
I could not restrain myself .

I only saw the fear in his eyes
As I tightened my grip
He thought he had killed me
But now I stood before him
I drew my blade to cut this bastard down
But my arm was held back by a familiar hand.

Instead of killing him, I cut off his thumbs
No longer will he wield the sword against my sons
I would have killed him if she didn't believe his lies
But he will live down in shame ‘til the day he dies.

And now I had my first vengeance
I must hold of the storm
Before I find myself a way
To win back her love for me.
