The artist and the warrior Fighting battles for the Lord Writing melodies to calm the aching soul Once a sword fierce in hand All the victories but one Shattered visions Lust and murder stole your heart away Fallen hero In a bed of sorrow now you lie your head in shame Through the eyes of a compromise You entertained the thoughts too long Overwhelmed by a rush of blood Captivated you stalked her love Crying out for mercy Regret plagues your every day Thank God for forgiveness And a brand new day
