I remember I was asking why And someday you said I'd know All these years, of fighting hard And now it's finally come too close
I can't believe it's now happening to me Oh, couldn't it wait a few hundred years Destiny can't rest you see, now it's time Time to cry your tears! Now cry!
The child of centuries, forgotten in time You talk in circles of rhyme Seer of places future and past The warning you gave us is surely our last
Warning!
Behold the child, his pointing hand Is raised in solemn grace His eyes once wide with learning wonder Now leave stains upon his face
Now see the hands of the working man He's leaning back against the wall Once busy hands are idle now Standing ready for the fall! Our fall!
The signs will come as days past by For those that claim to see The blind will stay not choosing to die Not believing the visions I've seen
