It Had to Be Done Lyrics


There was a reason, for all my acts

they were dismissed as madness

there was a root for all these actions

and this was the key

Dispossessed of everything

without dignity nor means

what else could I do?

When I looked into your eyes, all sorrows dispersed

One by one good men, were steadily falling

Everything was collapsing,

pressure building up and up

the whole world and society crumbled down

I failed at seeking support...

gloomy days, all doors closed.

And then the darkness and winter came

and your mother gone...

Away from you, from her, cause her eyes are yours

I fought for your future

Every minute...

the final punishment

I'm fighting against waves, condemned to lose

no one cares but you.

A flame guttered without salvation, even if it shone brightly before dying.

A father, a victim, monster or lion, agony in his eyes.

I'll burn!

(it’s my decision)

I'll lose everything!

(maybe I couldn't protect you)

No way!

(two hours to say goodbye)

I'm an empty shell

Crawling in misery, naked and battered

Broken by all their games, lords of paper and gold

No witnesses, no alibi, shattered lives

Visions of sorrow, (I'm sorry), visions of cold

When you read this

I don't expect you to understand

Alone, in this room, getting ready for my fate

Only dry tears remain...

(ready to lose, ready to shine)

(What had to be done...

had to be done...

to be done...

done)

My fall, your rise...
