These walls once held my oath and sword
With brothers I swore to guard the Lord
But now they stand, weapons raised
And in their eyes, I see them fazed
They call me traitor, curse my name
Blind to their own blood-stained shame
One by one, I'll cut them down
For I no longer wear that crown
I am the shadow, the fallen knight
In blood and fury, I ignite
No gods can save them, not today
As I make the righteous pay
Their honor fades, my wrath commands
This is the paladin's last stand
I hear their cries, feel their fear
The echoes of those I once held dear
They swing with valor, blinded fools
Still chained by holy, empty rules
In this place where faith has died
I am the blade, I am the tide
Their blood will stain these holy halls
For I am the one who now stands tall
I am the shadow, the fallen knight
In blood and fury, I ignite
No gods can save them, not today
As I make the righteous pay
Their honor fades, my wrath commands
This is the paladin's last stand
I hear their cries, feel their fear
The echoes of those I once held dear
They swing with valor, blinded fools
Still chained by holy, empty rules
In this place where faith has died
I am the blade, I am the tide
I hear their cries, feel their fear
The echoes of those I once held dear
They swing with valor, blinded fools
Still chained by holy, empty rules
In this place where faith has died
I killed the crowd that's stained
Once, I was the light's defender
Now, to darkness, I surrender
My brothers fall beneath my blade
This is the path that I have made
In their eyes, I see their doubt
But it's too late, there's no way out
(Aric succumbs to the darkness inside
and Rhythm takes over)
How dare you stand and call me foe
