Eruption - The Prophet lyrics

Everyone is silent The blind prophet speaks of war He brings word of devastation Telling how humanity will be no more He was gazing at the Sun Until all he saw was red He kept gazing at the Sun Until his old eyes bled Dying when they found him His scorched skin burning red He traded his sight for visions His eyes were black and dead Now everyone is silent As he paints the tales of war and his words of devastation how d**h will rule forevermore Visions brought d**h and decay Gazing at the Sun Violence, starvation and pain He kept gazing at the Sun Followed his delusions Became messengers of d**h An insane man’s call to arms They fought till the dying breath He kept gazing at the Sun every day All he ever saw was blood So on his people slay And keep dying in the mud Visions brought d**h and decay He kept gazing at the Sun Violence, starvation and pain Until his old eyes bled Slaves of a mad man’s desire The prophet who speaks to the Sun He kept gazing as they died and his eyes bled He’ll be gazing till the day he’s dead The old man’s mind is fried Lies, lies His sanity gone with his eyes Lies, lies Everyone listens As the prophet speaks of war He brings word of devastation Telling how humanity will be no more He was gazing at the Sun Until all he saw was red He kept gazing at the Sun Until his old eyes were dead Reborn when they found him His scorched skin burning red He traded sanity for visions His mind was blank and dead Now everyone is silent As they buy his tales of war Empty words of devastation d**h and hate forevermore Visions brought d**h and decay He kept gazing at the Sun Violence, starvation and pain Gazing at the Sun Visions say tomorrow We’ll be nevermore Silent whispers from the Sun Doom is at our door
