Slechtvalk - Nemesis lyrics
[Slechtvalk - Nemesis lyrics]
In a time of hatred and despair
I was blinded by the veil you had cast
Over me i will not submit to
The terror you'd unleash if I
Don't do as you please
I have grown tired of you
Telling what's best for me
For everytime I follow you I find myself
(stuck)
In misery i will draw the line and you happen
To be on the other side of it
I am not afraid of you
But I'd rather not see your face
For every time I think of you
I'm reminded of my disgrace
Every day I’m haunted with what
I could have done
But how can I defeat myself for I am my own
Enemy? This life has to end
But not in the way that you might want it to
You try to persuade me to turn
Away from what’s best for me
But now I know I must continue for I
Want to be freed of you this is where it ends
And I no longer care whether
You agree with me!
You talk of freedom and glory
Yet what makes you think I am a blind man?
I have seen the fruit of your wisdom
It's foul stench wakes me
From my pleasant dreams
What you think will set me free
Binds me down in misery
Once you may have ruled as king
But now suffer my new allegiance!
I'll drown you, my nemesis
Your reign is ending now you (will) die!
I am not afraid of you
But I'd rather not see your face
For every time I think of you
I'm reminded of my disgrace
The battle has been won, but I still have
The memories of all I have done
You were my worst
Enemy, but now I'm free to turn into a
Different man than I otherwise
Would have been the memories fade with every
Choice I make differently
And even if I fail you're no longer
Controlling me and one day I’ll forget you
I was blinded by the veil you had cast
Over me i will not submit to
The terror you'd unleash if I
Don't do as you please
I have grown tired of you
Telling what's best for me
For everytime I follow you I find myself
(stuck)
In misery i will draw the line and you happen
To be on the other side of it
I am not afraid of you
But I'd rather not see your face
For every time I think of you
I'm reminded of my disgrace
Every day I’m haunted with what
I could have done
But how can I defeat myself for I am my own
Enemy? This life has to end
But not in the way that you might want it to
You try to persuade me to turn
Away from what’s best for me
But now I know I must continue for I
Want to be freed of you this is where it ends
And I no longer care whether
You agree with me!
You talk of freedom and glory
Yet what makes you think I am a blind man?
I have seen the fruit of your wisdom
It's foul stench wakes me
From my pleasant dreams
What you think will set me free
Binds me down in misery
Once you may have ruled as king
But now suffer my new allegiance!
I'll drown you, my nemesis
Your reign is ending now you (will) die!
I am not afraid of you
But I'd rather not see your face
For every time I think of you

The battle has been won, but I still have
