Dark Serenity

I wonder if children born into war fear the silence of peace I can't speak the truth of my times if I don't acknowledge the streets Cracks in the stained glass where sinners seep The holiest hold the secrets that scare the sheep alas behold the souls that the Grimm would reap I pledge allegiance to the peace Practice what I preach Took an oath to keep my brother My brother ain't keeping me I wonder if he can see the dawn's early light cometh The thief in the night runneth Our cup overflows Runneth And all that we've ever wanted was peace to be brought upon us But war tore me to pieces At least I can still be honest Battle scars under armor The father's sins are the Karma the son will inherit Honor among thieves is the squander of riches So poor in value Yet it is I that was bound to The burden of loving thy enemy As I pray to thee who hath placed the seed of Sin in me Dark Serenity
