Cries Of Agony

Hardened by battles of yore, says the lore

Making a name for yourself all through war, which you adore

An eagerness to lead, humiliate the enemies

To have them on their knees, to praise your name eternally

And you may have had your share of glory

Engraved in your memory

But you still hear their cries of agony

Taking the whole storm by storm may please you

But that won't make up for what you have lost, what it cost

And it will eat you up, while on the outside you're so tough

There's no one you can trust, no one to carve you some new cuts

And as you conquer other territories

Bringing others to your feet

Deep inside you can find no relief

And as you conquer other territories

Bringing others to your feet

Deep inside you can find no relief

And you may have had your share of glory

Engraved in your memory

But you still hear their cries of agony
