Bloodlust Battle

walking in the pale blue light of the full moon
the barren, charred wastelands seem beautiful now
I have to be a fool to keep going, to keep this up
but I promised her, and I tend to keep my vows

I'm battling for my life, so I can save hers
pushing through to find my sweet soul singer
weaving in and out of darkness, blending into the shadows
Nothing is gonna stop this six-string gunslinger

A moment of rest, as I look at the bodies on the ground
I close my eyes and I can see her smiling at me
the music of her laughter is driving me forever onward
and I can hear it now, drifting on the midnight breeze

My mind drifts back to when we were together
a frozen red rose, bursting through my icy heart
I never thought I could feel like that
I'm missing her so bad now, nothing is gonna keep us apart

I open my eyes and begin to follow the leads
from village to village, and town to town
battles with creeps and freaks, and terminating machine-hearted demons
No one ever knew that her savior is this wicked clown

through swamps and valleys, mountain passes and volcano caverns
I'm getting closer now, I can feel her heart beating with mine
Battle after battle, dead and lifeless bodies strewn about with joy
the heartless joy that only she can soothe, and leave behind

Up on the mountain top, I see her glowing essence
I take a deep breath and prepare for the final confrontation
I unsling my six-string and with soul-bursting joy
the epic battle of good versus evil had begun

I feel wind sweeping across my face, and a gentle touch
I am weak, but alive - and I know she is there beside me
FINALLY - I can rest easily now, knowing that I saved her
I crawl out of the ashes of the Wastelands, bloodsoaked but happy

I saved her... I kept my vow
