Katana - the Moths and the Dragonflies/Katana - Mud

In the light of the blood red sun
The silhouette moves fast and serene
Reflecting light from the shining blade
Blinding the sisters watching the scene

Grace was never taught to such perfection (perfection)
Demonstration of the human domination

In the vacuum closeness of the dark
Clouds blotting out the stars
The young boy intensifies the trance
And holds his breath in concentration

Suddenly from out of nowhere
The air is shredded in explosion
Wielding the blade so fiercely
No one can see the motion

Another moth to the ground (another moth to ground)
Another feast has begun
Another moth to the ground (another moth to ground)
Another feast has begun

Empty mind
Open eyes
Slaughter
Empty mind

This brainwashed community turned against us
I can't seem to find the reason
Recalling my father's memories
His visions and our quiet life
The green valley surrounded by the hills
Animosity didn't exist
Or was it all a lie
Was it just a dream?

Frostbitten feet
Running across the muddy plains
The weight on his shoulders (a burden to carry)
A life to save

The last remains of his bloodline
Collapsing on the stone cold floor
As darkness eats his consciousness

His reason to live
Drawing her last breath but
Oblivion takes his anxiety away

He wakes up to find her gone
Buried under stony soil
The rage and thoughts of revenge
Makes his frozen blood boil

Tranquilizing wind, deep in meditation
Roaming through my mind to
A time that was before

Flashback to never-again
In the time of happy days (tears are running down my face)
In the time of happy days (all was so perfect then)
In the time of happy days
In the time
In the time of happy days

Flashback to the forbidden city within the walls of clay
Flashback to the river of peril and the beautiful day

Flashback to the time at the tombs on the emperor's land
Flashback to a night of sacrificing for the sake of becoming a man

Everything was taken away from us
Stripped to the core and forced away
The clan head was executed for revolution
Were we ever so evil to anyone?

Slaughter
Envy
Hatred
Humiliation

You took away my dignity!
Why should you be the one who decides
Whether I should do this or that?
I'll destroy everything that you are!

Suddenly from out of nowhere
The air is shredded in explosion
Wielding the blade so fiercely
No one can see the motion

A dragonfly to the ground (a dragonfly to the ground)
Another feast has begun
A dragonfly to the ground (a dragonfly to the ground)
Another feast has begun

A dragonfly to the ground

Katana!
