In the distance, foreboding, a castle in black
So far I have come, there is no turning back
Through the trials and tortures, I have conquered them all
As I stand at the cusp, they are destined to fall
Overlords evil, spreading hatred and fear
My heart’s beating faster, destination draws near
Allies I found, but also allies I lost
They were taken by fear and could not pay the cost
So I stand here alone, though my courage might ebb
I know deep inside, I must enter the web
And though I may fall in this “foolhardy” quest
When you speak of my name, speak it deep in your chest
For if alone I must stand, I will press, I will try
And I will venture forth ’til the day that I die
