He can not eat, he can not sleep, he can not see that
d**h is coming, I know there’s nothing more I can do
In fits and dreams he speaks to me, he says these
things beyond belief; I can not take his words as truth
He comes to say his piece...
I know he’s travelled so far to find me in this
landscape, perilous and full of unknown treachery
And now he’s giving his life to tell me things I can’t
face, how could I betray his utter trust in me?
[CHORUS:]
And with his final breath he, imparts his vital
prophecy…
Carry on for your generation, you are the one to guide
them all
Don’t delay, your time has come, lead the way into a
brighter dawn
I must prepare for the path before me, ever daunting,
indemnify for my naiveté
And I can no longer hide away pretending nothing, when
the world is ending right in front of me
[CHORUS]
And to bring honour to his soul, I will accept this
righteous role
This nameless prophet that could see, that which
resides inside of me
Deep inside, I reconcile my fear
Sustain my sickening apathy for good
For the worthiest of men, but a promise escapes me
Wicked blood will run
[CHORUS]
