He never said he needed anyone
Self-contained, an island to himself
Cold and hard as a stone
He could always find his own way
She found her way inside
past all his defenses
she took up residence in his mind
and now she rules his world
He would die before he'll admit it
He doesn't want it any other way
For a brief time, too brief, they were together
Fate and a monster then ripped them apart
He defied his fear to find her again
In a fortress at the end of time
Horrors and horrors he found
at the end of his journey
worst of all, he soon discovered
what had been done to her
He swallowed his fear
He found it in him to face the monster
He won his battle though he bears the scars
then he had to face her again
He'd made a promise he didn't want to keep
to her and the others he'd found
there was nothing else they wanted and nothing he could give
except to end their suffering
It goes without saying, I suppose
He was never the same again
He never said he needed anyone
Self-contained, an island to himself
Cold and hard as a stone
He could always find his own way
She found her way inside
past all his defenses
she took up residence in his mind
and now she rules his world
