about

The Dark Horde is a collective of internationally recognised musicians, vocalists and actors from Melbourne, Australia. Together they have created The Calling, a concept album written and directed by Andrew "Brewin" Drage.

The Calling is a musical narrative experience featuring a supernatural horror story set to an "eighties heavy metal" soundtrack. It is the prequel to Brewin's award-winning horror novel The Dark Horde, set in south-eastern Australia in 1989.

Victim is the fourth track from The Calling album and the third single.

lyrics

IT ISN’T ME, NOR WHAT I PLANNED
I’M VICTIM TO A FORCE THAT TAKES COMMAND
THEY RULE MY THOUGHTS AND FORCE MY HAND
WHY DOES NO ONE UNDERSTAND?

SAVE ME I PRAY FROM THIS FATE
I DID NOT WANT AND DID NOT CREATE
MY PRAYERS GO UNANSWERED, WHAT CAN I DO?
THEY WILL DESTROY ME AND DESTROY YOU

NOBODY SEES, NOBODY KNOWS
WHEN ANGER FEEDS AND MALICE GROWS
HATE IN MY HEART, FIRE IN MY BRAIN
WHAT IS FANTASY AND WHAT IS SANE?

THEY WILL DESTROY ME AND DESTROY YOU
HOW CAN I LIVE WHEN THIS IS TRUE?
ALL HOPE IS LOST, I WANT TO DIE
TO END IT ALL, BUT FEAR TO TRY

HELPLESS, ABANDONED, VICTIM AM I
NIGHT HAS FALLEN, DARK IS THE SKY
DARKNESS THROUGH WHICH I CANNOT SEE
DARKNESS CORRUPTS INSIDE OF ME

NOBODY SEES, NOBODY KNOWS
WHEN ANGER FEEDS AND BITTERNESS GROWS
HATE IN MY HEART, FIRE IN MY BRAIN
WHAT IS FANTASY AND WHAT IS SANE?

ALONE - NO ONE CAN SAVE ME FROM MY FATE
UNKNOWN - NO ONE UNDERSTANDS WHAT I CREATE
ENSLAVED - IMPRISONED FOREVER IN THIS HELL
IN PAIN - IN NIGHTMARES OF TORMENT I AM TO DWELL

MALIGNANT, ETERNAL, A HIDDEN BLIGHT
CASTING LIFE INTO THE DEEPEST NIGHT
BLACK IN MIND, BLACK IN HEARTS
SLOWLY TEARING OUR SOULS APART

THERE’S NO ESCAPE THAT I CAN SEE
THE DARK HORDE ARE, WILL ALWAYS BE
THEY COME FOR ME, THEY COME FOR YOU
THE DARK HORDE ARE, THEIR TIME IS DUE
