I walked along the rough and rugged road Traveled farther than the walking dead Bearing the heaviest, the worst of loads My hands are strong; forever stained with red And carrying the burden of the **** That I committed; seared into my mind Reminding me that one day I'll fulfill The contract with death that remains unsigned And as I step into his cold embrace Death releases me from my tightening chain No longer apart of the living race Once again I see the man that I have slain And as I flow into the deadly dances I know at last that I am out of chances

CONTRACT WITH DEATH
I walked along the rough and rugged road Traveled farther than the walking dead Bearing the heaviest, the worst of loads My hands are strong; forever stained with red And carrying the burden of the **** That I committed; seared into my mind Reminding me that one day I'll fulfill The contract with death that remains unsigned And as I step into his cold embrace Death releases me from my tightening chain No longer apart of the living race Once again I see the man that I have slain And as I flow into the deadly dances I know at last that I am out of chances
