Gustav's Arrival

O Fortuna!
Am I but your clockwork hero?
From here in the last ditch
Toe to toe, blow for blow
You are the enigma
Well, nevermind
The future’s already happened
And there is always someone left to fight
To the death
With every breath inside this body
My dreams are what’s keeping me alive!

And it is wise to be careful
When the animal shows no fear
Puny human – you are no match for me
For things are never as they appear
As they appear

Well, I’ve been freed from the ropes that bind
Now who is the puppet master?
Dishing out an eye for an eye, spitting teeth
Well, you’ll never take me alive
O Fortuna!
Am I alone in this darkness we call redemption?
Well I could not change you
No more than I could change my shadow
No more than I could fly to the moon

Puny human
You are no match for me
For things are never quite just what they seem to be
