No, no, my mind goes
I cannot fight this fight alone
I try to resist

Stop, stop, I cannot
My destiny this is not
The Force is calling

I try to fight back
The pain, stop, it won’t relax
My mind clouds, goes dark

I see red, I fear
Cackles echo upon my ears
Whispers in the dark

A voice calls from black
“Join me, power you won’t lack”
I moan in sorrow

This is it. I’m done.
He’s right. He will rise. He’s won.
Power’s promised me

Nothing left to hide
Overcome by the Dark Side
Nothing stands in way

The time has come now
For Clan Scholae to lie down
Its weapon and Consul Xen

He fades ever still
He wishes for us to kill
And save our beloved land

Stages

Seal the deal in the sale
Reduces the chances of the fail
Offer them what they desire
Recruit are full of the fire

The end of resistance is the key
For those who seek to be
Souls can always crack
Find the way through the back

Fear and despair is the base
One must get in their face
Break them down to the core
Then bring them back to the fore

Once the soul has been bared
Ideas of the Dawn are shared
Rising up from the bottom tier
Now they will learn without fear

Acceptance is total and complete
Soldiers will be tough to beat
A new dawn has risen to power
Up to Scholae not to cower.

I will not join the New Dawn
You will not turn me
You will not break me with my brawn
I'm telling you just wait and see.

Ahhh you think that will turn
Grr I never thought that would burn
So you will have to try again
The pain you cause will not begin

You keep pushing with your mind
I'm having a very hard time
You are trying to overcome and bind
Me in this New Dawn such a crime.

I will serve Fallax our Lord.
I see now the truth you have shown
I just thought Xen’s rule was bored
Now we come and struggle no more

In the universes death,
these fighters fly ,
For Emperor tonight.

From Gray to Sith,
the Emperor power flys,
To the New Dawn.

No one fails,
along this universe but I,
this fighter gray.

In the Emperors universe,
good try to shine,
How soon it must gray.

An Emperor's universe high...
A Universe of death into New Dawn,
Strike high again.

Black death,
The black is universe of Emperor

Black from the universe
fly fighter gray in the haze.

The silent
death of his buzz.

Emperors universe
silent, that universe,
To the Emperor in the abyss.

Fight my imperial
fly, swift fighter in death,
forever with the force.
