My Dying Time

For the fear will not take hold

Let it bite my hand
Let it feast on me again
Burn my remains down
For this light will be my guide

I've learned a lesson
To never run
Doubt made me bite the dust

Honor accepts the weakened
But not the craven ones
I've learned to stand

In my dying time
When the darkness falls
Will I see the light
Will I ever step beyond

Hail of scorn I last
'Couse the truth's a long hard path
In my bible of lost and won
Some scriptures are written in blood

For what's behind me
I've paid my price
I've learned the hard way
But that's what made me last

In my dying time
When my breath grows cold
In my dying time
Fear will not take hold

In this life my pain I've buried
In this fight my rage I've buried
Hardened in fire and ice
Now I face the unknown

Fearless I stand, remorseless
To accept my faith
When the darkness falls

In my dying time
Will I step beyond
In my dying time
Will I be reborn
In my dying time
When my breath grows cold
In my dying time
Fear will not take hold

Facing the end
Fearless I stand
Awaiting
