    Master of Doom’s Song


    Gather round, and listen here, I’ll sing a tale of old


    it must have been a dozen years since last this tale was told


    all you youngins grew up in this age of war and hell


    since the portals opened you’ve been fighting hard and well


    There was once a time before those evil monsters came


    when being strong enough to lift a car would earn you fame


    now you all have powers that are hard to comprehend


    even all your injuries take only days to mend


    But in this age of monsters from that other world of doom


    where battles only end for moments before they resume


    there is only one who can be called the very best


    once you hear this legend, you can forget all the rest


    He was just a hunter like the rest of you, but weak


    fame and recognition were not things he’d ever seek


    whenever portals opened, he’d defend his home and friends


    but victory is not where this poor hunter’s story ends

    The monsters of the olden days were masters of their realm


    there likely isn’t any world they wouldn’t overwhelm


    you cannot imagine just how scary those things were


    those wretched “masters of doom” still hurt me to remember


    One day as he fought before a portal near his town


    ten more opened next to him, and enemies rained down


    he fought so hard he lost his mind, but in the end he lost


    but for his grief he vowed that they would surely pay the cost


    His home and family were for the monsters to consume


    victims of the monsters from that unknown land of doom


    on that day when everything seemed hopeless and unfair


    everybody noticed something different in the air


    No one knows if it was fate or some unheard of skill


    but from then, there was no monster that he couldn’t kill


    all the monsters from the doom dimension that he found


    once they caught his eye, they were in pieces on the ground


    That was many years ago, so where is that man now


    and why were there so many monsters back then anyhow


    well, until he came along, the monsters came in waves


    legions of those things put countless hunters in their graves


    Today when portals open only one or two come out


    still they may be strong, but they are fewer, there’s no doubt


    this is thanks to that old hunter, who went mad with grief


    and did something that anyone would think beyond belief


    One day, after dealing with three waves, or was it five


    he stood before a portal fairly injured, put alive


    without a single word, no single ‘farewell’ or ‘goodbye’


    he took a breath and jumped straight into one great portals eye


    According to the government, he died in that attack


    after all, nobody ever went their and came back


    after that day, fewer monsters came through portals now


    though no one that you’ll talk to can agree on why or how


    But I think that the reason is as clear as it could be


    that’s because when portals open, sometimes you can see


    far behind the monster that emerges through that door


    to the doom dimension is an endless, raging war


    Monsters all in chaos, fighting desperately to live


    but monsters aren’t a creature any human would forgive


    so look into that ‘doom dimension, all despair in gloom


    we may have sent those monsters our own world’s master of doom
