| I. the observance
|
| An angels kiss now fallen
|
| Descending scarlet cuts the sky
|
| Faded names left on the wall
|
| Honor the fighting leave life to die
|
| Remembered is the sacrifice but
|
| No praisal of blood still flowing
|
| Who were the leaders?
|
| What controlled the killing hand
|
| That caused this mourning?
|
| crossing over…
|
| Ii. |
| ancient renewal
|
| Lowered deep into the sea
|
| Being awaits to cleanse his soul
|
| Senses weakening time is still
|
| Motionless by stiffening cold
|
| The wheels race back and
|
| Scorch his mind
|
| Travelling all to find the land
|
| Revelation warms a touch
|
| And now, he will begin to Understand
|
| Iii. |
| the stray seed
|
| Extended a view to yesterday
|
| Manifestation for none the same
|
| Walking amidst a frightening still
|
| No sound, no smoke, no scorching
|
| Flames
|
| he is risen…
|
| Sipping his poison the raven sings
|
| Yet another to add more bodies fallen
|
| King from below
|
| This one controls
|
| The killing hand that caused this mourning.
|
| is it all over?
|
| Iv. |
| thorns
|
| Evil genius this secret plan
|
| Mercy dealt with the losing hand
|
| Will he ever fell?
|
| Can he end it all?
|
| Our savior must make his stand
|
| Only a prophet of years to come
|
| Wanting mortality Im all alone
|
| He heard my voice
|
| It was my choice
|
| Ive stopped the killing hand
|
| V. exodus
|
| When I go back again
|
| Will it be the same?
|
| Ive stopped the cries
|
| But now they know my name
|
| The sea is calling me My spirit must return
|
| As I get closer,
|
| Was it really worth
|
| What I have learned?
|
| Im in the valley
|
| And the saddened chimes I hear
|
| Race toward the wall to find
|
| One more name appears
|
| No one is left now
|
| My one and only land
|
| I laugh at what Ive done
|
| I am the killing hand |
