The Shadow You Cast
guitar chords lyrics
"Bright like wild fire
Into the light of dawn
Two blades are a choir
We sing their song aloud"
"Two shadows are creeping
The battle has begun
The Starborn, the Crimsonone... who will see again the sun?"
Crimson King:
"The black hole, the gate
Far beyond into the unknown
Tainted my fate
Made me the Crimson God outshone"
"He cannot be me
This longing to conquer and kill
This fight is the key
"He cannot be me
This longing to conquer and kill
This fight is the key
To see my destiny fulfilled"
(Isaac):
"Riding through the black hole
I found another...
... another stranger me
My sanity is torn asunder
This 'evil brother'
Is overwhelming me"
Crimson King:
"Facing this distorted mirror
It's getting clearer
The prophecy of the old:
'From the distance, from beyond time
will sail the Starborn
and the Crimson God will die'... oh, NO!
...I've never trusted that stuff, ahahahaha!"
"Beyond your belief
There's a place that beckons you to stay
Under starry skies there's a new world
In the clouds up high
Out in the dark there's a King
The fallen one
Our guardians united against him
To War they Run"
"The dawn of rage finally came
For the heartless one
Veiled in dusk over our land he reignedBut we're no more alone
With something that words cannot tell
The force of freedom
The Starborn is here for us all
To break the crimson spell"
"Caught somewhere between life
Death, love and hate
I'm tryin' to kill "myself" with this knife
Could you believe my fate?!"
Crimson King:
"The power to kill, rule and reign
You dare to blame me?
My godness and mercy I slain
I will erase you now!"
(Isaac):
"Riding through the black hole...
Maybe it was luck... maybe it was fate: Isaac hit the Crimson King right in his chest with
the heavy blade of his sword. The enemy fell on the stone cold floor of the tower, where he
died looking at the Starborn.
Is this an happy ending? Maybe... Isaac was shocked. On his right, his love Reika, Lutar
and the other natives who fought by his side stand still; the corpse of the Crimson King
laying on his left and... his throne. The Starborn was staring at his hands: after the fight
they were soaked with blood, giving them a red, ruby... CRIMSON colour.
Did he really killed his 'evil brother'? They came from different worlds, but they were the
same man. The Crimson king's last words were still screaming in his mind: how could he
be sure he was the real one? And that leads to the most important question: what to do
now?
The answer seemed to be obvious: he was the Starborn, the hero of the prophecy, the one
who fell from the skies to free the world from the tyrant... but he discovered that HE was
the tyrant himself!
Before his last breath, the Crimson King said: "Even the purest soul is submitted to the
oldest rule: the closer you get to the light, the bigger shadow you cast"
