Defiance of Fate

So far away
The night descends on one more day
I call your name
But no reply, nothing
How to go on?
Why wear a smile upon my face?
I try to rise in vain
But I can't defy, I can't defy my fate

A silent dark
At the end of every road
A silent dark
Now the silence calls me home

Can't find a meaning
In a cold uncaring world
I long for days
Days that once and never were
My hopes begin to fade
For I can't defy, I can't defy my fate

A silent dark
At the end of every road
A silent dark
Now the silence calls me home
But will I lay down as my life passes by?
Or will I raise up my fist to the sky?
I will not go silently into the dark
My flame will burn brighter than all the stars

I will stand tall
No, I will not go silently into the dark
I will be known
My flame will burn brighter than all the stars
I will stand tall
I will not go silently
I will be known
My flame will burn bright, so bright
You will know my name
You will hear my voice
My life will have meaning, I have made my choice
Now I stand defiant
I stand in defiance of fate

For all of time, my will and my spirit remain
