Scourge the lands and bleed life dry
Resistance tries to conjure reasons why
My blood spilled carnage fills the air
Trembling bodies wither with endless despair
I can see through the trees a picture of a hopeless dream
Do you believe
(This sudden vagrancy has left me feeling empty and alone)
The truth in lies that they tell you every night
For I have seen a light in the Mirror of Shad’Haran
(Behold beloved everything that I have done
and everything that I will do to bring the world to you)
Beg and plead
Hope for better dreams
My sorrow lies deep within the seams
My will shall focus on this demand
Cradle life with the remnants of my shattered hands
The tides are rising the seas demand
Sacrifice from this once hopeful now broken man
The tears are streaming from the sky
As the innocent run, scream, believe they will die
In turn with the land that bleeds and denies this truth
Of the man that dare sanctify his life of death and desire
Hearts bleed by the pyre
This feast of intent on the child’s lament
Run rabbit run
Away from me
I can see through the trees a picture of a hopeless dream
Do you believe
(This sudden vagrancy has left me feeling empty and alone)
The truth in lies that they tell you every night
For I have seen a light in the Mirror of Shad’Haran
(Behold beloved everything that I have done
and everything that I will do to bring the world to you)
