Jason McEntire - Part III: The Lamb and The Dragon lyrics

[Intro] So rapid the raptors, as coursers they came All the scratching and screaming, I barely escaped While the fuel cells they drained far too fast, I am dragged Like worms on a hook through the hole to the blackness beyond At the end of days, where the world bleeds and burns [Verse 1] The sun is black, a sackcloth made of hair The stars have fallen to the Earth, mountains tearing from the ground Look at these people hiding from the red raindrops While earthquakes shake the broken timber of this burning town There's poison in the water, the ocean's blood has turned to slime and gotten hard All the fish and whales are corpses on the scab In the darkness, soldiers gnaw their tongues in pain, you see "So help me God, at the end of time!" they're screaming on their knees Oh, let them die! Oh, let them die! [Chorus] "The wrath of the Lamb!" the martyrs cry "Break the seven seals, let The Horsemen ride!" The soldiers bear the royal crest and scream into the sky "He will come! He will come! The Dragon's on the rise!" [Verse 2] "The king survived though his throat was cut, they say he's the chosen one He leads our men from Babylon, the rebellion's worldly son Against the Tyrant, we have joined with him as soldiers." He tells me this while he shakes a bit - he's staring at his gun The painful stings of flying things have worn away his flesh and popped his eyes At the blackness, he lashes out and cries: "You cowards and your wrathful God will see what power means! When the Dragon comes - his will be done - in the fires you'll be cleaned! Oh, let him rise! Oh, let him rise!" [Chorus] "The wrath of the Lamb!" the martyrs cry "Break the seven seals, let The Horsemen ride!" The soldiers bear the royal crest and scream into the sky "He will come! He will come! The Dragon's on the rise!" [Instrumental Breakdown] [Bridge] I watch these people fall The Dragon shrieks and burns it all I flip the circuits on, I've got dragons of my own The portal glows and my machine's destroyed [Solo: Chorus melody from "Part 1: Broken Bride"] [Verse 3] "The Traveler has saved their souls from the Destroyer of Worlds Then why does his heart still scream? Rise and speak." I couldn't save her, I know she will die But please, if I could only tell her goodbye All I want is just one more day That morning in May... [Outro] I've fought reptilian monsters I've crossed a bloody sea Just to meet you here And now I'm coming home, my dear The light is warm, outside at dawn The garden has no weeds, no grave beneath the tree Through the silent house, my love, after all Curled up in a ball, there you are...
