Lyrics The Merciful One - The Raven Age

The Merciful One

Fear is not within
I can sense the evil coming
And now I can’t erase them from my mind
I know for I have seen
Firsthand how they will break you down
Merciful one does not exist
This needless suffering (that falls upon me)
These demons are not real (in my eye)
Their voices will return someday
We can but stare into the sun
And rise above the flames
I realize I’m not the chosen one
But I’ll burn you to the ground
The face not to be seen
So why should I believe it
Cannot let these feelings take over me
Right before my eyes
Is it testament to fighting back
Without a chances of repeat
This needless suffering (that falls upon me)
These demons are not real (in my eye)
Their voices will return someday
We can but stare into the sun
And rise above the flames
I realize I’m not the chosen one
I’ve never said these words before
Now I feel betrayed
For I
Once was
The same as you
Fear of failure
Crawling back now
Begging to forgive
In this life we’ve
No second chances
Falling out of here
We can but stare into the sun
And rise above the flames
I realize I’m not the chosen one
But I’ll burn you to the ground
Now I feel betrayed
For I once was the same
