And so it begins, I'll search for my way

Do not say goodbye, I will return someday

I leave for my future covered by dim light

All that I bring are the words in my mind

I travel through valleys and over mountains,

fearing what lurks in the dark

And all that I see is sorrow and pain

and innocent slain



[Chorus]

Why, oh tell me, why must all the good die?

This is not right, I feel rage tonight

Hate against evil and all who serve it

Fear of the victims who don't deserve it

Their souls are in pain, their bones remain

What can I do to fight it?



I hate to see all the hurt

of the ones left behind



They're bred by chaos, nurtured by hate

It is their time now, and they are evil lords

Someone must stand tall before it's too late

The peace amongst old trees, where did it go?

Out here it seems oh so cold

Shadows where no eyes see, I move through the leaves

No one can speak to me



[Chorus]



And I hate to see all the hurt

of the ones left behind

Behind...behind…



[Chorus]



And I hate to see all the hurt

of the ones left behind
