Reverse

Cold and wet the empty streets

Hallow steps a fading sound

Here where they do their misdeeds

She rises from the ground

Through the dark she creeps

She's been called back to life

Yet unknown, yet unseen

A shadow in their minds

She says 'reverse… strike back'!

She's been known by many names

Before they banished her kind

Bound her for all centuries.

Erased her from their minds

Was it me that called her back to life?

Summoned her so many times

Too many absent years

Despair beyond repair

She's knocking at their doors

She whispers into their ear

Get up from the floor

Remember me, I am your voice

I am your defence

I will help you to strike

The darkest goddess of revenge

I will show you how to fight

Through dark streets and corridors

Frightened vessels, broken pride

She gathers more and more

She leaves a knife by their side

So they cut the fists that cause the pain

And she smiles satisfied

Her image burned in their minds

The memory of womankind

Remember her bittersweet words

Make the choice today

She's your shield; she's your sword

I hope she has come to stay
