[Intro]

[Verse 1]
I stand alone, blade soaked in red,
A thousand ghosts within my head.
The faces lost, the lives I stole,
Cry out beneath this fractured soul.

[Pre-Chorus]
Is vengeance worth the price I paid?
The fires quenched, but not the shade.
What am I now without this war?
Just broken wings and bloodied floor.

[Chorus]
If I could turn, if I could change,
Undo the scars, the path, the rage.
But in this flame, my sins still gleam,
A knight unworthy of the dream.
So let me fall or let me heal,
Forgive me if I learn to feel.
I bleed not just for wrath or pride—
But for the hearts I left behind.

[Verse 2]
His voice still echoes through the storm,
He held me close when I was torn.
And though I walked the darker way,
His memory won't fade away.

[Pre-Chorus]
I wear the guilt like sacred flame,
And whisper softly through the shame:
If I must fall to set things right,
Then let my fall become their light.

[Bridge]
I thought revenge would make me whole,
But vengeance feeds and steals the soul.
Now all I want is peace again,
To lay my blade… and drop the pain.

[Final Chorus]
If I could turn, if I could change,
I'd trade this power for their names.
I’ve walked through fire, I’ve paid the cost,
But still I grieve for all I’ve lost.
So let me fall or let me heal,
Let truth be all I dare reveal.
This final oath I swear inside—
I fight for those I left behind.

[Outro]
And if I'm lost, and if I'm gone,
May they remember what went wrong.
