The Deserter
Tetrafusion

The smoke is thick, I cannot see
There is no one left but me
I put myself into this hole
I signed the deal and sold my soul
As I look down, I see the ground
I don't know that I will be found
As I look up, I see the fire
Consequences looking dire

Alone I stood, alone I died
There was no chance to say goodbye
The dust was thick, I couldn't breathe
Everyone else was gone but me
I cannot laugh, I cannot cry
There's so much more than meets the eye
No emotions cross my face
I left myself within that place

Ten years later, here I stand
I am both the lion and the lamb
I put myself through that hell,
but it was my soul to sell
It hurts more now than before
Everything has changed since the war
To this day my hands are red
with the blood of those who

Murder! Murder!
How dare you call me a deserter?
I was only trying to
Save, save another from the grave!
I am the lion and the lamb

Growing older makes it worse
Memories will never disperse
Numbing myself to reality has never helped
As this moment fades away,
there's still a price to be paid
Like a lion leading the lamb to the slaughter

Murder! Murder!
How dare you call me a deserter?
I was only trying to
Save, save another from the grave!
I am the lion and the lamb

Murder! Murder!
How dare you call me a deserter?
I was only trying to
Save, save another from the grave!
I am the lion and I murder, murder!
How dare you call me a deserter?
I was only trying to
Save, save another from the grave!
I am the lion!
