Guiding steel and starlight to our enemies' demise,
our bodies tools that ran and danced in absence of our minds.

That wretched battlefield demanded much from both our sides,
and panic took my sanity the night you joined the blind.

A coward's chant made home my throat, I slowly realized,
while standing by my kinsmen from a distance safe behind.

But the void left by my sanity gave courage room to rise,
my nation cast away for distant miracle to find.

On darkest page of darkest tome, a secret for your eyes,
and no law set by God or Man will stop it being mine.
