You may have won this time
Shattered bones to be the penance for my crimes
But as my blood seeps through my hands to the pavement below
I'm broken and beaten but never defeated
In due time I'll rise again to reclaim my pride
Where blade meets flesh and steel meets bone
Where beasts are forged and hearts are turned to stone
I've stared into the face of death and it's left me cold
Locked deep inside this penitentiary in my own mind
But I'll soon break these chains and remove the vale that's rendered me blind
So now I'll scrape myself from the concrete and take back my life
