Blind to the Fire
<Raised alongside one another by their adoptive father Blunder, the original leader of the Outcasts - Spurn tries to convince Scorn to let go of his anger and stop the escalation of the Outcasts joining Karambit's War Party.> [Spurn Speaking] “Scorn… this path you’re on—it’ll burn you alive. Blunder taught us better. His words… don’t you remember? ‘An eye for an eye leaves everyone blind.’” [Spurn: Verse 1] You carry the scars of a name stripped away, A heart once tender, now hardened and grey. I’ve seen your pain, I’ve felt it too, But revenge won’t heal what was done to you. You lead with strength, but what’s the cost? In chasing power, what have we lost? Blunder taught us the strength to rise, Not drown the world in our hate-filled cries. [Spurn: Chorus] Lay it down, this vengeful flame, The fire that fuels you will burn just the same. Blunder believed in a brighter way, But your heart grows darker with every day. [Scorn: Verse 2] “You think words can erase the past? Blunder’s wisdom couldn’t make me last. When my mother starved, where was peace? When they cast us out, did mercy release?” I was nothing, torn from pride, Betrayed by blood, left to die. You call for forgiveness—what would you know? You weren’t there in the crushing snow. [Spurn: Pre-Chorus] I know the weight of being cast away, Born as a shadow, in the light’s decay. But strength without wisdom is doomed to fail, You’re chasing a wind that carries no sail. [Spurn: Chorus] Lay it down, this vengeful flame, The fire that fuels you will burn just the same. Blunder believed in a brighter way, But your heart grows darker with every day. [Scorn: Male Voice] Let it burn, let the flames ignite, I’ll carve my justice into the night. The weak deserve to be cast aside, I’ll lead with power, not with pride. [Spurn: Bridge] Blunder’s words were your shield, your guide, A voice of reason to still the tide. If you let go, if you let him down, Will your power bring the peace you’ve found? [Scorn Speaking] “Peace is a dream, Spurn. Dreams don’t feed the starving… or protect the broken.” [Spurn: Final Chorus] Lay it down, this vengeful flame, The fire that fuels you will burn just the same. Blunder believed in a brighter way, But your heart grows darker with every day. [Scorn] Let it burn, let the flames consume, The ashes will scatter, but strength will bloom. I’ll forge my path through the dark and pain, No light, no mercy—I’ll lead through the flame. [Spurn: Outro] “You’re blind to the flame, Scorn… One day, it’ll take you too.” [Scorn Speaking] “Better to burn… than be weak.”
