Manticora - Katana - the Moths and the Dragonflies/Katana - Mud

In the light of the blood red sun, the silhouette moves fast and serene
Reflecting light from the shining blade, blinding the sisters, watching the scene
Grace was never taught to such perfection
Demonstration of the human domination

In the vacuum closeness of the dark, clouds blotting out the stars
The young boy intensifies the trance, and holds his breath in concentration

Suddenly from out of nowhere, the air is shred in explosion
Wielding the blade so fiercely, no one can see the motion
Another moth to the ground
Another feast has begun

Empty mind - open eyes - slaughter - empty mind

This brainwashed community turned against us
I can't seem to find the reason, recalling my father's memories
His visions and our quiet life - the green valley, surrounded by the hills
Animosity didn't exist...
Or was it all a lie? Was it just a dream?

Frostbitten feet, running across the muddy plains
The weight on his shoulders - A burden to carry - a life to save

The last remains of his bloodline
Collapsing on the stone cold floor, as darkness eats his consciousness

His reason to live, drawing her last breath
But oblivion takes his anxiety away

He wakes up to find her gone - Buried under stony soil
The rage and thoughts of revenge, makes his frozen blood boil

Tranqualizing wind - Deep in meditation
Roaming through my mind, to a time that was before

Flashback to never-again, tears are running down my face
All was so perfect then, in the time of happy days

Flashback to the forbidden city within the walls of clay
Flashback to the river of peril and the beautiful day
Flashback to the time at the tombs on the emperors' land
Flashback to a night of sacrificing for the sake of becoming a man

Everything was taken away from us
Stripped to the core and forced away
The clan head was executed for revolution
Were we ever so evil to anyone?

Slaughter - envy - hatred - humiliation

You took away my dignity
Why should you be the one, who decides
Whether I should do this or that
I'll destroy everything you are

Suddenly from out of nowhere, the air is shred in explosion
Wielding the blade so fiercely, no one can see the motion
A dragonfly to the ground
Another feast has begun

A dragonfly to the ground

KATANA!
