My Epic And We Were So Close
Don't they see the sky burning and claiming every hope?
Can't they feel the earth breaking and scattering the
fold?
This act surely is past the scope of clemency and any
shroud of mystery.
Lets return now; say the word and we'll retreat to
better scenes.
Coastlines and mountainsides, perfection dripping from
the seams.
How could miracles reveal the mysteries and end in
tragedy?
Don't let them boast.
They'll claim the victory if you give up the ghost.
I stand awaiting the call for the rescue.
One word and empires fall.
You're calculating the point for your next move, but
this is taking too long.
Has courage fled for newer brides, and traded truth for
alibis, that I alone of dozen strong should witness
your demise?
Before your mothers eyes,
Whisper "relief."
I know you have the power!
Is this the way it's supposed to be, the shepherd slain
by all the sheep?
They're cursing your name.
You're fading away.
When will the empire fall?
They spit in your face.
It's more than I can take.
Is this the end of it all?
Don't touch him; this man has done nothing wrong.
