lyrics

And as the sweat falls free from my head
Mixing with the blood splashed back by the dead
I think to myself that it's not worth it in the end
Just one more step, and away I'm lead

And as the wind whips against my skin
Mixing with the dust that settling in
I think to myself "I'm never gonna win"
Just one more step, maybe I can give in?

The hordes can come closer,
The world can get colder,
But my time on earth is far from over.

And as the light gets chased down by the night
I do my best to hide from the outside
I think to myself "It's never gonna be alright!"
Just one more step, maybe I can get by

The hordes can come closer,
The world can get colder,
But my time on earth is far from over. x 3
