We'd wear our hearts on our sleeves
our hopes embroidered into our vests
so when the dark consumed us
of course there was nothing left.
You'd learned your lesson
packed your bags and hid
left me behind
thought I was easy to kid.
I've seen things, my friend
things that one cannot forget
things that made me stronger
for every challenge I've met.
I wear my scars with pride
but now you, my friend
you've begun to inflict them
but I will not let others end.
I will not let you harm them
I swear upon my life
because you've become the darkness we'd faced
and I have become the light.
