Anberlin - Miserabile Visu (Ex Malo Bonum) lyrics

A red priest broke into our cla**room Caught us children by attention "Listen closely to the words I speak Lord knows if we'll ever, ever again meet" Spoke such words never spoken before On the way he declared there were Miracles like you've never seen From a man who was raised up in the sea A man is coming in thirteen-one To charm the daughters and the sons Scared for our lives, I turned to your hand Hold this tight while we run, if we still can What disasters may come Whatever it may be At the end of the age It will land you and me What tragedy may bring Whatever may fall The end of the world You'll still belong Before the red priest took his last breath He told me, "Child, now don't forget The sun will turn dark very soon Your days are numbered when there's blood on the moon "The earth will shake and the sky will fall The eyes will open of those involved Don't take this son, but you'll be k**ed By the man from seven hills" A man is coming in thirteen-one To charm the daughters and the sons Scared for our lives, I turned to your hand Hold this tight while we run, if we still can What disasters may come Whatever it may be At the end of the age It will land you and me What tragedy may bring Whatever may fall At the end of the world You'll still belong Look children to the eastern sky When you hear the voice say your last goodbyes Look there to the eastern skies When the ghosts take hold of the men who died Look children to the eastern sky When your fathers weep and your mothers cry Look children to the eastern sky What disasters may come Whatever it may be At the end of the age It will land you and me What tragedy may bring Whatever may fall At the end of the world You'll still belong Look children to the eastern sky When you hear the voice say your last goodbyes Look there to the eastern skies When the ghosts take hold of the men who died Look children to the eastern sky When your fathers weep and your mothers cry Look children to the eastern sky Look children to the eastern sky
