Where do I begin?
My mind has always been clear
You have been sheltered
A weak and parched survivor
You take one drop at a time

I would bring you back
Resurrect your legacy
The kingdom regained

I saw you today
I could not make myself known
It still hurts inside

I was awoken
Truth hit me like a great weight
The old world was gone
Legions of ghostly soldiers
Gathered to deliver truth

These days of darkness
A single light leads the way
A new dawn breaking
