Lyrics

[Verse 1] My story starts the day they said she can't be found The news so dark, heart stopped, stood silent without a sound It's over, she's finished Mother lies with your father and sister too Cold-blooded, they suffered Shot down by the outlaws after you [Pre-Chorus] Sorrow swallows my screams [Chorus] Strength of the world is on my shoulders Strength of the world is on my side Strength of the world, the one true beholder Ice in my veins for those who'll die [Post-Chorus] I've seen my family fade away You've taken my whole life, there's nothing left to say [Verse 2] Avenge the dead, killed all who crossed me in my path Suicidal, I never planned on coming back I want it, I need it Revenge is dripping from my teeth Need nothing, to feel power And bring the killers to their knees [Pre-Chorus] Nothing to lose vengeance to gain (You know I'll never be the same) So taste my breath I'm close behind you (So desperate on your final day) Sorrow swallows my screams [Chorus] Strength of the world is on my shoulders Strength of the world is on my side Strength of the world, the one true beholder Ice in my veins for those who'll die [Post-Chorus] I've seen my family fade away You've taken my whole life, there's nothing left to say [Bridge] Sitting in silence with heaven above me I prayed every night by their graves While I search for closure I feel it no longer I can't turn my cheek away I stand before you; I'll sin when I have to But now I leave your side to avenge my family's pride [Post-Chorus] I've seen my family fade away You've taken my whole life, there's nothing left to say [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] Strength of the world is on my shoulders Strength of the world is on my side Strength of the world, the one true beholder Ice in my veins for those who've died [Outro] So far forever now alone A greater punishment on me has been imposed A killer falling from the light I'll miss my family, I'll never be alright (That's all she wrote)
