Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
The blade I swing is black as night
black as my soulless heart:
it bears the burden of many lives,
but I don't feel remorse!

I lent my sword to anyone
willing to pay the price
no regrets for what I've done:
a mercenary's life!

But there I was, on battleground
till I felt the jaws of death
cutting through my flesh defending old and weak
but I did not retreat

Now here I lie in my own blood
and strangers cry for me
I'm prepared to meet the Gods,
I wish they'd let me be

I don't deserve their sympathy
I know who I am
my soul is death and misery
I am an evil man!

I rest in my blood
soon I will face the Gods
strangers cry for me
I wish they let me be

Show no sympathy
shed no tears for me
I know who I am:
I am an evil man

I know who I am
I am an evil man

I know who I am
I am an evil man

I know who I am
I am an evil man

I know who I am
I am an evil man!
