Black Tusk
Lyrics
Buried in my past, a casket
Knows who I’m supposed to be
A life I left behind
To engage with darker seeds
Half-a-man and half-a-monster,
Will you tell me which is more?
I’m always made to choose
Between two selves which I abhor
Now where I go, Black Tusk follows
Their hearts all marked with sin
I can outrun my shadow, but
You can’t outrun the dark within
Opportune at last rebellion
Gave its truth to me
In a group of misfits I found
the means to be set free
Cast aside the horrid masters
Who will chase me ‘til I’m dead
I’ll save an arrow for them,
My new friends will paint them red
Now where I go, Black Tusk follows
Their hearts all marked with sin
I can outrun my shadow, but
You can’t outrun the dark within
I know where there's magic,
There's freedom.
At least where there's magic,
There's freedom.
Now where I go, Black Tusk follows
I can outrun my shadow
