Misery's Defeat

Eyes that
Cry through the night
I beg of you to find strength

I know that melancholy
Has crippled your faith
And that hope
Seems like a rare artifact

Yes, this world
Has turned its back
But there is a fire in our soul
That makes us find a way
To fight whatever life
Throws our way

Giving up might seem right
And the pain might be unbearable
This I know from experience

I know that belief
In ourselves in these tragic times
Decreases in a rapid way

That is why I ask
You to trust in me
And I shall
Sever the head
Of your misery
