Loose standalone adaptation of a storyline in a project of mine called the Cores-verse. Song #71 in the Vampiria album. https://suno.com/playlist/48a703f5-8d8c-4708-a575-748a288033bd (storyline is in song order). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [Intro] I'm smiling for one simple reason Because it feels nice It feels incredible So much better Than being miserable So even if I die I'll do it with passion And a smile gracing my bloody face That is my answer, sister I smile because I want to [Verse] Everything I did I did for you Yes, I fell short And I know it hurt The truth is I prayed at night And trained every fucking day [Chorus] I begged the Great Divine To send me a sign And in those seventy years My goal was always clear Didja think my skill with a gun, Was just the past few months? I've been fighting all along [Verse] Yes, I was scared And waited too long But I didn't twiddle my thumbs I just lacked the confidence To kick in that fuckhead's door And put a round in his wretched skull [Chorus] I begged the Great Divine To send me a sign And in those seventy years My goal was always clear Didja think my skill with a gun, Was just the past few months? I've been fighting all along [Verse] It's not mutually exclusive I was strong and yet still weak I feared if I failed Charging headfirst and underprepared I wouldn't get another chance And make everthing worse So I kept on getting strong I know I should've come sooner I'm sorry, sister [Chorus] I begged the Great Divine To send me a sign And in those seventy years My goal was always clear, Didja think my skill with a gun? Was just the past few months I've been fighting all along [Bridge] (Roll, leap, shoot) Can't pierce this dragons bones Bleeding in dirt Getting my shit rocked I won't quit Until I've fixed my fuck up The dark magic holding it together regens But... a momentary gap As it stitches... Wait... Duck... Up... NOW! [Verse] Jam this crossbow right between the ribs Even out of ammo Stretch open a hole To shove the rifle in Aim at the core Their fused together heart And bang, bang, bang Unload the whole damn thing [Outro] Hey... Listen. My master helped me be brave. But my strength is my own. He just showed me to stop being afraid. I won again. Until you let me in. I'll defeat you as many times as I must. But I'd rather fucking not. Please just surrender, sister.
