The Stains of Time

The Stains of Time is the boss theme and character song for Monsoon in ''Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance. ''Its lyrics depict a storm that washes away all reasons for fighting and hope for a peaceful life, and only allows for hatred to remain.

Lyrics
Wash away the anger!

Here I stand beneath the warm and soothing rain

The droplets falling gently down on the terrain

Wash away the﻿ sorrow of the Stains of Time!

But there's no memory, it's only dry inside.

In the blood it's sinking deeper...

Into a peaceful life!

And it will flow! Like a flood of rain! For another me!

And it will not let up until the end is here!

And it will glow! Through the darkest day!

In the final hour!

And it will never rest until the clouds are clear

Until it finds my dreams, and﻿ disappears...
