"Wolf & Raven (2008)" lyrics - SONATA ARCTICA

Grant me a wish, my master
Take heed of me
I have been loyal servant
Heartfelt, humble

Gave up - what belongs to me
Gave up my greed
My self-examination
Made me see, to be me

Now I am like Judas, done
Ashamed of what I've become
Fear for life I wear as a ring
To bask in your favor, I will kill the king

You say I am unbreakable
I cannot die
I know, but anyway
The words, they maim me

Grant me a wish, my master
Compassion, please
I'd like to be a human
(Maybe one day)

Now I am like Judas, done
Ashamed of what I've become
Fear for life I wear as a ring
To bask in your favor, I will kill the king

(Entreaty)
Let me go
Master, I hate you so
How can I live my lie
When my whole being cries

I tried to be like everyone
Open my soul
But what I had to give
Resulted loathing

Enchanted by the power
Licked by the grace
One beautiful black flower
The end of the human race

With pride I face my faith
King and Queen now lie in state
Fear for life I wear as a ring
I bask in your favor, I have killed the king

I had a nightmare
The Wolf eating The Raven

Entrails of life on my plate
And I ate them

Interested in what I see
Try that Rorschach test on me
Have you seen the beauty of an
Enticing beast

(Entreaty)
Let me go
Master, I hate you so
How can I live my lie
When my whole being cries

Let me go
Master, I hate you so
How can I live my lie
When my whole being cries
