The Red Hood (Acoustic Version) [Vocals Only]

Lyrics

[Verse 1] When once, long ago I was worn down and abused The strongest took the spoils, and Then we fell down at their shoes But now, they are gone And my sanity's kept by my chains So I bear them both in faith and hate For family and all that remains [Pre-Chorus] All that remains All that remains [Chorus] Fight, to ignite Not for gods nor the coming of night If I'm the last of the men to fall Then this warrior's growing in might For fear and for love And survival when push comes to shove The Red Hood is coming to take you home The bearer of Soul and of light [Verse 2] And old kings will fade And the last of the light's fading too The castles long have fallen And the paintings faded blue So here, now you stand We are human yet both something new The last prize has been taken Now the Red Hood faces you [Chorus] Fight, to ignite Not for gods nor the coming of night If I'm the last of the men to fall Then this warrior's growing in might For fear and for love And survival when push comes to shove The Red Hood is coming to take you home The bearer of Soul and of light [Bridge] Though some of us won't make it back We're following into the black Unknown for a long lost throne We rise again Where others might look for escape These lights in the dark search for grace Once lost to a blood-soaked cause I will rise Here in the ashes, balanced and whole Endlessly searching for power and soul At the end of all the ages In the last of my crusades You're the Red Hood's last contender But your world must fade away [Pre-Chorus] Though graceless and exiled, still loyal the same Returning to roots through the dark and the flame When lords rise against, have it writ on their grave The last soul was claimed by a mortal unnamed [Chorus] Fight, to ignite Not for gods nor the coming of night If I'm the last of the men to fall Then this warrior's growing in might For fear and for love And survival when push comes to shove The Red Hood is coming to take you home The bearer of Soul and of light [Outro] We will die again at the fire's end Over and over At the end of time, we will testify We rise again
