Lionheart: Execution from Lionheart by Hollow Bones

“Dear god” she cries, “make it stop”
I am a ghost, I am a ghost of who I once was
A shell of who I should be
There is a boiling rage sitting right beneath my skin
I’ve seen her cry again and again
For the love of someone who isn’t there
Begging for the reassurance, that was once promised
But no, the ugly face of what we call humanity
-HAS ABANDONED HERAs
she’s left struggling to find an answer
To what she’s done wrong

But it is her fellow man that has wronged her
Shamed her into believing that she is broken
She’s not broken
She’s not broken

The god she was taught to turn to
Has sentenced her to eternal suffering
To eternal suffering

An execution wearing the face of banality (it’s wearing the face)
Death by false values
We’ve signed the orders for her execution
This world has turned its back on her
And we’ve signed the orders for her execution

I always swore I would do more than just exist
But my fire has burnt out, and I am just suspended
I always swore I would do more than just exist
But my fire has burnt out, and I am just suspended

(I will love
I will grow
I will move forward
I have the heart of a lion)
