[Verse 1]
[F]An explosion of feathers
and [Fm]flesh in the sky,
[Em]blood drew the spell
of the last battle cry.
Owl fought the great eagle,
as they [D]fell to the ground,
[Eb]and Wolf[D] dug his teeth
in what a hideous [Em]sound.
No mercy was given,
[D]an d they showed no remorse,
[Em]as they must eat or be eaten
and fight with full force.
Wolf [Fm]got cut by the [Em]eagle,
and Owl could tell that
she'd had but this chance,
so she cut and [Eb]Owl fell.
Owl was exhausted
and thought her rib[Fm]cage would burst,
[Eb]but finally the battle had quenched
her bloodthirst.
Wolf lied be[Eb]side her
with cuts [Em]exposing bare bones,
and the wine he was tasting
[Eb]was the blood of his own.
[D]The land had been filled
with a horrific alarm,
as [Dm]three creatures [Em]had clashed
and tried [Eb]to do them most harm,
[Em]but calmness [D]took them
at the [Bm]border of dawn,
[C#]when two were dying
an[Em]d the third one was gone.
Bear watched [D]the long battle
between Eagle, [E]Wolf [D]an d Owl,
[Em]and at l[D]ast they fell silent,
short of one last weak [Dm]howl.
I [Bm]con gratulate [C#]you wolf,
you found your last stand,
you're finally free to leave this
[Bm]cursed land.
[Em]You didn't care to ask [Bm]why,
[Eb]you only cared how.
Can this battle be [C#]won?
Well, it's [E]all over now.
[D]The bear wandered on,
[Eb]he had no urge to [Db]stay.
In the morning dew mist
he [D]faded away.
Owl lied on top of [Eb]Eagle's cold [Db]body,
her[D]self bleeding out,
feeling beaten [Eb]and shoddy.
[Db]But better than Eagle,
for the [D]Eagle was dead.
She did as she promised.
[Eb]I took your damn head.
Owl stood up victorious,
[Gbm]not noticing [Db]the light,
[Eb]as she just waited for some darkness
to bring back her night.
[D]But night wasn't [Eb]coming,
for what has left won't return.
The [Db]sun was [Cbm]slowly rising,
[Em]and Owl's eyes started to [Eb]burn.
Wolf! She cried out.
Wolf! Please, can't you hear?
We have won,
but still it's happening!
Wolf! I'm trembling with fear!
We killed Intruder,
and we set ourselves free!
So then why is it dawn now?
Is the world [D]mocking me?"[Eb]
[Db]Wolf couldn't say much,
for he [Eb]was strained of [D]all strength.
So his last pre[Eb]cious words
couldn't be of great length.
He [D]looked up at the owl
with eyes [Db]still holding some [D]might.
I just [Eb]gave you what [Db]you wanted,
and you wanted to [Eb]fight.
The sun was [Eb]al ways to come back,
and only [Db]you would not see.
You did it all to have [Eb]things
as [E]you wanted them [Eb]to be."
Owl stood [Cbm]quiet by Wolf.
She couldn't fight his last [D]words.
[Dm]She knew that [D]rarely
[Db]would wolves be outwitted
by birds.
[Em]They had both fought in vain
for the sake to have war.
She had finally learned
of what comes and came before.
He said, Now I must rest,
for his claws cut me deep."
An [Eb]owl answered her friend.
It's alright, go to sleep.
