Too Late for a Savior is an experimental song musically, lacking a true chorus and shedding a usual song structure to express a slow, methodical descent into madness. The Elder of the Godhunter saga sought power through eldritch worship of the cosmos, and as his efforts proved useless but his following grew, he pursued darker means of seeking immortality. As he searched he neglected his people, and the deaths grew quickly. It's too late for redemption, he claims, so he will stoop to any means to save himself.
Lyrics:
Never too late for changes
Never too late to move
With the barriers down
There is nothing left to prove
Then you're never too far to look back
At the vengeance or the fall
When there's nothing else left
But to take your curtain call
Give the ending just a little flavor
If you're going down, they'll break as well
'Cause it's too late for a savior
But it's never too late for hell
Never too late for madness
Never too late for death
As the towers rise
I will stand with bated breath
Now there's no one left to hurt us
And there's no one left to save
At the ending of all
It's the silence that I crave
Give the ending just a little flavor
If you're seeing ghosts they'll face the same
'Cause you're never going to be the savior
But a leader keeps the monsters sane
Lift the burdens of the weak away now
Let the many become the few
'Cause it's never too late for mercy
To let the red tides rise to you
Never too late for secrets
Never too late to hide
Build the barriers up
Let no one else inside
Heroes can't save the future
And no one can change the past
You'd need the hands of a god
Just to make this city last
Give the ending just a little flavor
If you're seeing ghosts they'll face the same
'Cause you're never going to be the savior
But a leader keeps the monsters sane
Lift the burdens of the weak away now
Let the many become the few
'Cause it's never too late for mercy
To let the red tides rise to you
Bring the fire when they call you "traitor"
If you're going down, they'll break as well
To the ones who don't deserve a savior
They've been ruined by the rebel yell
Take the suffering and plague away now
Let the madness become the truth
'Cause it's never too late for mercy
When the red tides rise to you
As power tends
Toward violent ends
I'll choose to give up nothing
'Cause it's too late to be the hero
And it's too late to see the truth
I'm exempt of absolution
But it's never too late for you
Bring the fire (It's never too late)
Bring the rain (It's never too late)
Grant desires (It's never too late)
Numb the pain (It's never too late)
Bring the fire (It's never too late)
Bring the rain (It's never too late)
Grant desires (It's never too late)
It's never too late for you
