achilles' heel

can you hear them screaming? as they storm into the night

where shadows take cover and lash at the light

king of the fallen

you come to pay

pay the gate keeper

to save your soul. betray your dreams untold. son of lies. fire of the gods. descend the arrows

upon the burning bodies

you left to die

to die

fear me

in your darkest hour

i climb the ladder of snakes

enthralled and mangles

stay with me

until the very end

no matter how hard you fall

you'll always be my achilles' heel

in war defeated

in triumph uplifted

i lift the spirit of victory

dawn the new age

where everything means nothing

where you're swallowed in black

and the vultures fly above

denied existence

as you fall to your knees

stay with me

until the very end

no matter how hard you fall

you'll always be my achilles' heel
