Silent pressure is building
Eyes are wicked calm
Hands aren't even shaking
The calm before the storm
My quiet eyes unflinching
My flesh is hardened steel
The violent wind is singing
Harsh upon my bitter ears
My heart is ever steady
Tension is building fast
None below are ready
Peace isn't meant to last
You'll be made immortal
A portrait formed of ash
Your image but a portal
To a long forgotten past
