The Dark Horde - Memory

Clouds of consciousness have cleared now, revealing my past.
I see myself in archaic days of darkness and the rancid fruits of my labour!

My mind is in agony, I CANNOT BELIEVE
How could I have acted? TO SET THEM FREE?
How could I teach them? AND LET THEM BREED?
And create a legacy OF DEMONIC DEEDS?

I was someone who meant this, MY SOUL WAS BLACK
With calculated malice I PLANNED MY ATTACK
To destroy humanity, TO DESTROY ALL
To gloat on destruction, TO CELEBRATE THE FALL

NOW I REMEMBER WHAT I HAVE DONE
DONE IN A PAST LIFE, WHAT I'VE BEGUN
AN ACT SO EVIL, DEEP IN MY MIND
NOW I REMEMBER WHAT'S LEFT BEHIND

The visions kept returning to haunt me because they were my past.
In some archaic time I'd brought them into this world, not knowing what they were.
I only knew they were alien to this world and meant only to destroy it.
And I, in some “fit of madness”, had let them in.

I want to be whole, TO RID THIS STAIN
But horrible truth is BURNT IN MY BRAIN
Whatever I do IT'S THERE TO REMAIN
A constant reminder OF MY PAST REIGN

NOW I REMEMBER WHAT I HAVE DONE
DONE IN A PAST LIFE, WHAT I'VE BEGUN
AN ACT SO EVIL, DEEP IN MY BRAIN
NOW I REMEMBER WHAT REMAINS
