Animan - Rising Storm

1. Strophe

A night full of rain and terror — the streets of London town

Groaning with pain — clangs in my ear — an unspeakable yell

The Tavern, it’s source — I am full of remorse — nobody here cares

Dispute of two — this can’t be true

Every order I obey is forced … human nature has a primitive cause

Leave behind the chain…

Everything seems to change

The inner me … drawn forth… a heedless act

The vision narrow… like a bull in a crimson cloak

My Rage is on — there’s no way to run — summon the beast… engage

Without a thought… considerateness… is just what’s missing…

Restrain the beast … tame it to succeed

2.Strophe

The knife unsheathed in Fury- the victim on the ground

My savage blow… meets the aggressor unprepared

You bloody mess… You will suffer … it’s your fault

I look up … she is looming over him … laughing

She calls me a fool

Interlude

Yesterday night, the most gruesome criminal of our town could escape the

clutches of London’s justice.

She has been hunted down for month

In the process of investigation numerous resources of the city were used

When at last she was compromised by a lone policeman in a local tavern,

an unknown stranger took him out violently and without any warning,

helping her to escape

The witnesses described the stranger as beastlike, bloodthirsty, unlike a human

How could this be wrong?

… I was trying to help… It felt so good,

so true… no thought could equal the feeling of honest rage… Isn’t a man just a

beast with a leash?
