Rebutena, the Void
Pull me into the void
Of the darkness opaque.
All around me is noise
But, no, they can’t prevent my escape
-
Broken chandeliers
Hanging from the ceiling
Nothing else is here
But then why do I hear whispering
-
Through the foggy cave,
The vapors suffocate me
It’s drowning out the pain
And dripping water every
-
Where can I find safety?
Where can I find peace?
Demons all surround me
What is happening?
-
No light in here: I’m blinded
Ear’s ringing, all I hear is loud!
I speak mute echoes to find that
I feel numb vibrations reflect sound
-
Sound into pictures
Pictures to pain
Pain of memory
I wish not to reclaim
-
The throne that’s awaiting me
Where is it? I cannot see!
Armies gone. What’s to be
Enemies I must defeat
-
Oh no, my friends
They’re my enemies
My family is
Not a real thing
-
Dream I speak
Out from my mind
Of towers, prisons
And humans kind
-
Of like that time I butchered
Twelve men in a row
I emptied the outpost
With my sword-like elbow
-
Destiny calleth
As by the prophecy
Balance is broken
By my enemy
-
Two incarnations
Of racial identity
But my race is gone, so
What does that mean for me?
-
Dragons depleted.
Demons extinct
Angels endangered. Why?
Supernatural entities.
-
Humans betrayed us
Or maybe we did to them?
Doesn’t really matter
History doesn’t blame sin
-
But I still remain here
And as long as I live
Then no other humans
Will keep that same privilege.
-
Bursting from the darkness
Fracture the hallowed void
For, there, my power hid when
My people were destroyed
-
Blasting holes through concrete
Metal now exposed
These buildings are war machines
And I see their weapons glow
-
Phasing through the air
In a world I don’t belong
Lasers singe my hair
But my judgement born, weighs on
-
Terror through the day
Panic through the night
Nowhere can they stay
For I don’t fear their light
-
No lantern can ward me off
No candles keep me away
They try but just attract moths
And they swarm with my gaze
-
I’ll be their undoing
My old name is undone
My home I am renewing
Taking back the light from the Sun
-
Take away the light
Bring back the night
Take away the light
Replace it with fright
-
Take away the light
Bring back the night
Take away the light
Now they’ll know how it feels like!
