We sleep content,
Without the thought of Damocles
Waiting to fall
And cut short life itself forever

We grow for now,
And stretch to the stars and new homes
But strife comes soon
And brother kills brother sadly

United we stand
For war now exhausted for us
But shadows lurk
In darkness fear watches for time

Heroes we grow
Defenders of the human life
Who know not
Of their sad and painful fates

The enemy,
Comes with fire and steel doom
To take the life,
And innocents burn in hellfire

We fought bravely
But young are we, to dare the stars
With hate and doom,
They descend upon we humans

We find few flaws,
They advance to kill hope itself
Our castle defeated
Our heroes cast down to torment

One shining light
The last hero disappears then
All hope lost now,
For no chance have we to fight and live

But hero stands
He fights the darkness like daylight
They recoil, burnt
For hell itself touched them just then

The hero now lost,
To return to his home in time,
He must be swift,
For the demons approach with flame
