Work Text:

It is written, they say, our destiny,
But then why live, if not to fight?
Humans have resisted since Adam and Eve,
Finding reason to hope in the darkest of nights.

We’ve loved in secret, you and me,
In shades of grey, in dark and light.
It is written, they say, our destiny,
But then why live, if not to fight?

We’re not just an angel and demon, you see.
We are like Adam, resisting Satan’s might.
Take your hand in mine, doesn’t it feel right
Regardless of what we were told to be?
It is written, they say, our destiny,
But then why live, if not to fight?
