lyrics

The Beast:
So here I stand before my weak and pitiful form
A pathetic shell unfit for cruelty and vengeance
The crimson blade shall rid this world of this fragile soul
Humanity will ooze out of this undivine form

Chorus:
The Gryphon and the Beast
(Battle in the sky)
Fear and rage collide
(Hear their war cries)

The Beast:
Nomarius the name fueling my hate and my rage
Her blood will be spilled before the child’s innocent eyes
She’ll watch the child drink her blood in her last dying breath
The crimson blade shall reap and vengeance will be mine

Chorus:

The dark winged beast awaits in the sky
Watching the victim’s blood stain the lands
A wounded soul must fight its dark side
The Gryphon will now take to the skies
To the skies!

Solos

Chorus:
The Gryphon and the Beast
(Battle in the sky)
Fear and rage collide
(Hear their war cries)
Strike to the heart
(Victorious cry)
The Gryphon succumbs, and falls from the sky!
