Hades - Sweet Revenge lyrics

See his memory fade

Wife and daughter raped and killed one night

Life's rewards erased

Only one thing to look forward to

He wants his sweet revenge

Stalking lifeless streets

Target waiting for him underneath the light

Hands that shake with rage

Clutching ornamented bronze and steel

Nerves that twitch with fear

Like a soldier waiting for attack

His sweet revenge approaches

Springing into flight

Victims' scream are nothing that his heart can feel

His essence is freed

As the blade cuts from behind

Slicing the temple where the tender flesh

Joins one's only mind

Fighting with a desperate last breath

His life endures punishment a second time

His vision is blurred

As the life drops from his eyes

Shining the weapon as his entrails fall

Splattering upon the floor

Ripping up the pieces of nerves that keep his limbs from dying

Twitching as if still alive

Letting the body ease from his arms

Slowly slumping to the floor

Smearing all the blood along his fingertips

And watching where the deadman and his body lie

Stands atop his kill

Gloating on his recent victory

Like a lion's pride

Guarding over it triumphantly

The streets are filled with laughter

Sweet revenge is what he's after

Now he walks alone, into darkness that will only ease the pain
