The story telling lyrics show a longing for the end of evil and war. The author is seeking for a powerful ally, a God or just someone to share the feelings with. His ‘dream’ ends with the feeling that although ending evil is impossible even for a Goddess, he does feel less alone knowing he shares this ideal vision with someone.
It is striking that in the second verse the author actually says he would like to end all evil by trampling enemies. He doesn’t realize that this is the evil he himself is so angry at.
Lyrics:
She came to me one morning
One lonely Sunday morning
Her long hair flowing in
The mid-winter wind
I know not how she found me
For in darkness I was walking
And destruction lay around me
From a fight I could not win
She asked me name my foes then
I said the need within some me
