The Unforgiving: The Prequel Songtext / Lyric

Why Not Me

Some may call it a curse, a life like mine,

But others a blessing.

It's certainly a lonely life,

But a fulfilling one, at best.



It's my cross to bear,

ButI bear it gladly.

Someone has to take a stand against evil:

Why should it not be me?






I've been left out alone like a damn criminal

I've been praying for help cause I can't take it all

I'm not done,

It's not over.

Now I'm fighting this war since the day of the fall

And I'm desperately holding on to it all

But I'm lost

I'm so damn lost

Oh I wish it was over,

And I wish you were here

Still I'm hoping that somehow



Cause your soul is on fire

A shot in the dark

What did they aim for when they missed your heart?

I breathe underwater

It's all in my hands

What can I do

Don't let it fall apart

A shot in the dark

A shot in the dark

In the blink of an eye

I can see through your eyes

As I'm lying awake I'm still hearing the cries

And it hurts

Hurts me so bad

And I'm wondering why I still fight in this life

Cause I've lost all my faith in this damn bitter strife

And it's sad

It's so damn sad

Oh I wish it was over,

And I wish you were here

Still I'm hoping that somehow

Cause your soul is on fire

A shot in the dark

What did they aim for when they missed your heart?

I breathe underwater

It's all in my hands

What can I do

Don't let it fall apart

A shot in the dark

A shot in the dark

A shot in the dark

A shot in the dark

A shot in the dark

I feel you fading away

I feel you fading away

I feel you fading away

I feel you fading away

Cause your soul is on fire

A shot in the dark

What did they aim for when they missed your heart?

I breathe underwater

It's all in my hands

What can I do

Don't let it fall apart

Oh, your soul is on fire

A shot in the dark

What did they aim for when they missed your heart?

I breathe underwater

It's all in my hands

What can I do

Don't let it fall apart

A shot in the dark

A shot in the dark

A shot in the dark

A shot in the dark

A shot in the dark
