A Jackal's Road

I walk a Jackal's road,

The only one that I can ever know.

Don't care where it goes.

For High Charity

I stand alone.

I snipe out the marines,

As they all shout out their final screams.

They think it's not just me

But I'm the only one.

I work alone.

I am alone; I work alone.

Walking alone, I walk on.

My rifle shattering the quiet evening.

My shallow heart's the only one left beating.

Sometimes I want to leave this war behind me.

'Till then I will fight on.

They run, they hide. I snipe, they die. They run, they hide, they die.

I'm right beside the line

That divides the others from my kind.

On the borderline

Of an Elite's mind

So I'm alone.

I've heard all their lines.

"He's messed up." They say it all the time.

I just say, "I'm fine."

And so they watch me go

Walking alone.

I am alone. Always alone.

No matter though, I walk on.

My rifle shattering the quiet evening.

My shallow heart's the only one left beating.

Sometimes I want to leave this war behind me.

'Till then I will fight on.

Walking alone, I walk on.

I spy the Master Chief

Walking with another young marine.

Just then they see me.

There's no time to think.

I fire.

My rifle, shattering the quiet evening.

The Demon's heart, the only one left beating.

And now the Great Journey is out of my reach.

No matter, I'm alone.
