<\/a><\/p>\nI am your blade
\nbloodied and broken.
\nI am your word
\nharsh and unspoken.<\/p>\n
I am your angel of mercy,
\nyour hand outstretched.
\nSpilling all in your name
\nI am a bloodstained wretch.<\/p>\n
I am your servant
\nblessed and unholy.
\nMaking kings into gods
\nI sin yet I’m saintly.<\/p>\n
Forged by your hate,
\nfueling your rage
\nI am the flame that you stoke
\nand the beast that you cage.<\/p>\n
From dusk until dawn
\nI am the shadow that creeps,
\nI am the dagger that’s drawn,
\nthe last breath in their sleep.<\/p>\n
I am your servant
\nblessed and unholy.
\nMaking kings into Gods
\nI sin and I pray they forgive me.<\/p>\n
I am your dishonour
\nand I am your shame.
\nI could be your undoing
\nfor crimes yet unclaimed.<\/p>\n
I am your discretion,
\nyour lies and deceit.
\nIn a graveyard of silence
\nI am the secret you keep.<\/p>\n
