"Theme : The DOOM Master"
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
