Requiem for a Fallen Star

(Verse 1)

Dust on the window, same as before

But the faces I see aren't here anymore

Just ghosts in the corners, whispers in the hall

From the night that I watched as they stood, and they fell

My life, a debt, a price to be paid

With two bloody skulls and a promise I made

To run, to survive, to learn how to kill

To be what they needed, but the pain's standing still

(Pre-Chorus)

I've seen the world, through a scope and a sight

Moved through the shadows and hunted the night

Six years to the day, I finally came home

Expecting a welcome, but I'm standing alone

(Chorus)

A raven's call in the dead of the night

For a star that fell from the sky, stripped of its light

My friend, my savior, a price for my pain

Another name lost to the blood and the rain

They took you for me, for a debt you didn't owe

And the rage that I feel is a seed they will sow

Requiem for a fallen star, lost to the street

I'll hunt every last one, I'll make sure we meet(Verse 2)

The papers they wrote, the lies that they spun

Said you were a hero, your long race was run

But I know the truth, the reason, the rhyme

You died 'cause of me, you ran out of time

I packed up a bag, with a plan and a plea

But they saw your kindness and killed you for me

Now the ghost in the mirror is all that I see

And the world that you saved is a prison to me

(Pre-Chorus)

I've seen the world, through a scope and a sight

Moved through the shadows and hunted the night

Ten years now I've been running, but I'm not running away

I'm just finding the path to the end of their day

(Chorus)

A raven's call in the dead of the night

For a star that fell from the sky, stripped of its light

My friend, my savior, a price for my pain

Another name lost to the blood and the rain

They took you for me, for a debt you didn't owe

And the rage that I feel is a seed they will sow

Requiem for a fallen star, lost to the street

I'll hunt every last one, I'll make sure we meet

(Outro)

No mistakes, Lady Ravenmur, you hear me, you see?

This debt isn't theirs, it was always on me

And I'll pay it in full, with a fist and a gun

Until every last one of them screams for the sun
