Alagaesia

I wake up young, in a simple life
Enjoying the simple pleasures that be
Gathering and playing while doing my chores
Getting some food, my life forever changed
No longer a child, no longer innocent
An image, a fate, thrust upon me
A destiny i didnt want, shoes i cannot fill
Going from 14 to 30, in the blink of an eye
I have to save our people, i have to save the missing
I have to keep an iron mask, i have to fight to the death
I have to safe myself, but must sacrifice myself to save the rest
The world asked for a hero, All i asked for was a childhood
I understand my purpose, i understand my role
I face it head held high, beneath my mask, is a face of sorrow
Over those lost, those missing, and the pain inside me
