Hero

All the stories and all the fairy tales.
The same happy ending.
This one is different, pinned down with nails.
The sad message sending.

Let go of the halo and elegant wings.
He gave up and lost the good fight.
Pain and uncertainty, song he sings.
None get rescued, way of the dark knight.

More villain than hero.
He still sits inside this empty husk.
More ten than zero?
Time passes, day turns to dusk.

Tearing through his sanity.
Resorting to malicious acts?
Completely changed, inhumanity.
I hope you covered your tracks.

Burn down the old life.
Build it again with new bricks.
Stabbed with a black knife.
Decend and cross the River Styx.
