A squall of rain and thunder Lapping at my heel as I take to the stairs Hot lead, red blood; asunder again the night Swallowing me now
It's been nine years Since the night he came to this place And my course was altered forever His errant steps to retrace And protect what's left to remember
Little orphan, cold skin wet with blood With these hands, I brought him back to life Just to watch him grow to use his own To wrest the life from another Now, the time has come to set things right
I slip away unperceived And under siege I will do what must be done
And though I walk through the valley Of the shadow of death I fear no evil but the evil in my heart As I stumble in between My conviction that all life is sacred And the will to snuff it out to do my part I trace the monster's steps From west to east and east to west again I slither through the daylight And I stumble through the dark Traverse the crepuscular Space between the two To find the truth before This lie tears me apart
A macabre prose composed With wine-dark skid marks on the floor A door emmured in plaster laid in haste How many people died here? The question is enough To make a madman of a saint A nightmare was awakened By this nascent taste
A vision of the end to come A moor beneath the cold, dead sun
I follow the body trail Fallout of cindered hail Always a minute too late Always trailing a step behind Oblivious to the mind's eye Of this golden-haired beast I chase
Harbinger rainfall An echoing shot from the forest Outsiders walk among them Spreading their instruments Sowing the seeds of distrust To turn them on one another Blood on the asphalt A slaughterous fog rises Lightning crashing right over our heads And the devil himself stops To turn up his chin in disgust As hell claims this once peaceful town
My finger over the trigger This road has taken everything from me It's led me right to this moment Somehow, I can't help but freeze I see hell in his eyes And with his velvet tongue He opens up his mouth to speak
“Let me show you a vision of the end Can you see it now? Do you understand?”Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
