Ghost Town (Freedom) |
| The earth was new, a great frontier |
| The perfect place to spread his fear |
| So satan set up shop to draw them in |
| Bright lights to display all his wares |
| «Come on in, forget your cares» |
| That devil knew just how to package sin |
| People came from far and wide |
| Not a guilty soul denied |
| But before they knew they’d been deceived |
| They’d step inside and never leave |
| They said his eyes were black as coal |
| His voice a shudder to the soul |
| He preyed upon the broken and the proud |
| He told them they were lost for good |
| No one loved them and who would |
| Before too long he owned that fallen town |
| And from inside the gates they’d wail: |
| Who can save us from this hell? |
| And as their hopes turned into tears |
| He laughed and all his demons stood and cheered |
| Then down a dirt road from the east |
| Came one, they said, could slay the beast |
| But did not fight with bullets or a sword |
| They called him Mercy and at his side |
| A thousand angels chose to ride |
| And as they moved, the ground, like thunder, roared |
| Stepping down from his white horse |
| And with a supernatural force |
| He spoke to his demonic foe |
| «I'm here to keep the law so let them go» |
| But that great deceiver only grinned |
| As his demons rallied to defend |
| He said: «The price of justice must be paid!» |
| So Mercy, rising from his seat |
| Showed them all his hands and feet |
| And said: «I am the lamb that was slayed» |
| Then the demons and their thief |
| Stheir heads in disbelief |
| And began to writhe upon the ground |
| When they saw he held the keys to their ghost town |
| Then one by one the slaves began to shout |
| And the captives found their way out |
| Mercy broke the chains and they cried out: |
| Freedom |
| Freedom |
| Freedom |
| Mercy broke the chains and they cried out: |
| Freedom |
| Freedom |
| Freedom |
| Then one by one the slaves began to shout |
| And the captives found their way out |
| Mercy broke the chains and they cried out: |
| Freedom |
| Freedom |
| Freedom |
| Mercy broke the chains and they cried out: |
| Freedom |
| Freedom |
| Freedom |
| Then one by one the slaves began to shout |
| And the captives found their way out |
| Mercy broke the chains and they cried out: |
| Freedom |
| Freedom |
| Freedom |
