Now that everything is lost Everything I held dear All gone in the madness of this world Don't let me fall apart Don't let me live a lie
Kiss my lips and poison my heart Whisper your love and poison my soul Anubis be my guide tonight Let my thoughts run out of line So we can start this show tonight
Drums pounding in the distance Heralding the end of days A whisper of a warning, They grow louder every day They bring the nightmare that's at bay My final act My betrayal
My ancestors in the past Have foreseen a future that would last So Fathers where are you now I'm just wondering why
There are drums in the distance Heralding the end of days A whisper of a warning, They grow louder every day There will be no new dawn For me a child of (the) Gods Now the drums are beating faster "It's coming now, It's coming now" they warn
There comes a time when you decide A time to make a sacrifice And pay the final price in blood So sacred and divine
Is there glory in such an act? Endless death or eternal fame And as the final curtain falls I'm just wondering why
There were drums in the distance Heralding the end of days A whisper of a warning,
They grow louder every day There will be no new dawn For I was child of (the) Gods Father please come get me now And take me to a better place Yes there were drums in the distance Heralding the end of days Come and see my final act Of despair and of regret Won't see a brand new dawn For I was child of (the) Gods All for this day, this twisted glory Still I'm wondering why
There were drums in the distance Heralding the end of days A whisper of a warning, They grow louder every day There will be no new dawn For I was child of (the) Gods Father please come get me now And take me to a better place Yes there were drums in the distance Heralding the end of days Come and see my final act Of despair and of regret Won't see a brand new dawn For I was child of (the) Gods All for this day, this twisted glory Still I'm wondering why
Can't hear it, can't see it, can't feel it, can't hide it Don't need this damnation When all I sought was salvation Can't hear it, can't see it, can't feel it, can't hide it Don't need forgotten glory Still can't help but wonder why
Have the Gods forsaken, Have the Gods forsaken me? Have the Gods forgotten, Have the Gods forgotten me?
In a life it's hardest to know which bridges to burn and which ones to cross All these paths can surely make one scream when it all seems like a dream Somewhere out there there is truth and there are lies, all well hidden in disguise For what follows ends in my goodbye, still can't help but wonder why
