Soul Searcher
Last thing I remember was my head hitting the ground
And the aching of my heart pound
My body is getting light, I have wings
I am taking flight
My soul is leaving my body now, I am dead
My murderer is taking his bow
Can you feel the hatred I feel?
I want to be alive, I want to be real
I will seek my revenge till the day my killer dies,
My lover awaits me, alone she cries
Lightening is flashing across the sky,
Telling of my death and wondering why
With these questions you ask,
I cannot help you, for I am dead,
My life is through
I will keep my soul alive, the more he runs
The harder my soul strives
I have shot him down
He will no longer come around
My business is done, I can go
My lover cries, "No!"
I left, I went back to my grave and slept
In peace with nature and everything around me
Now silence everyone
Leave me be
