Unrest In The House Of Light

You have heard me tell this story

Many times before you sleep

This time listen carefully

And I will tell you once again

But this time understand that what I'm telling you

Every single word is true

You need to know

There was another who came before you

He was a hero and your brother and my son

He fought the darkness, the darkness won

And he fought bravely, and he died bravely

But he was forsaken by the ones he wished to save

And when he died he died in vain

You need to know

You are not him

That time is coming, and I must warn you

That though it's something that you may not understand

They can't be saved by just one man

And I am sorry, cause I was wrong

And I'd take away the weight his shoulders had to bear

Cause when he fell I was the only one who cared

You need to know

You are not him

This fight's not yours

That story's finished. That story's ended

Understand there's no more that we can do

And I will not risk losing you

For if you leave now, you will be fighting

For a people that refuse to comprehend

They have chosen their own end

So you will stay here. You will obey me

And I will keep grieving for the son I sent to death

You are the only thing I have left

You need to know

You are not him

This fight's not yours

You cannot win
