Given Flight By Demon's Wings Lyrics - That Within Blood Ill-tempered - Shai Hulud

This is not my true nature 

I was not born as what I have come to be 

To be gentle again... 

An angel's heart given flight by demon's wings faces certain death 

Do not let this exterior deceive you 

I can easily crush your spirit 

My wounds bleed truth 

Their voices are caustic 

And with the words 

A nasty sting from aim and precision of fact 

"How can you be so cruel?" 

It is not who I am 

As it is the hate I feel 

I am a demon 

A vicious fiend 

Let me alone 

I am a demon with a penchant 

For other's misery 

I am a demon 

A vicious fiend 

Let me alone 

In peace 

To be the beast of a man 

The world has made me 

I am prepared to fight humanity every day 

For the rest of my life 

Albeit, my mind and body 

Yearn for tranquility 

People that should earn my love 

Consistently warrant my hate 

I truly resent this 

Breathe easy, friend 

Let not bitter fruit sour your breath 

You were once a gentleman 

When friends fail 

And mother is gone 

When god is silent 

And mates fall out of love... 

I still wake to confrontation 

Alone, and unflinching 

I am not simply strong 

I may very well be the strongest man 

That ever lived
