| Weary I was walking
|
| A disassembled man
|
| I wandered through creation
|
| A ghost upon the land
|
| Cloaked in threads of all my lifetimes
|
| Deep-stitched into bone
|
| Like a tapestry of shadows
|
| Acid-etched in stone
|
| Longing to remember
|
| The day I left the pyre
|
| And rose up like a phoenix
|
| From a far-off ancient fire
|
| Now I’m homesick for the ashes
|
| Of the world I’ve known
|
| On a path toward perdition
|
| That I’ll walk alone
|
| Cold night in a quiet town
|
| I found a crowd and stood back as it grew
|
| As it grew
|
| Echoes of a place in time
|
| When a million voices rose anew
|
| Words of war spread faster than a prairie fire
|
| Through the jaws of Heaven here we go
|
| (here we go)
|
| For on high the chosen told
|
| Tales of old the faithful chose to hear
|
| Chose to hear
|
| Wake up all your sleeping souls
|
| Gather up your guns the end is near
|
| Words of war spread faster than a prairie fire
|
| Through the jaws of Heaven here we go
|
| (here we go (here we go))
|
| Words of war spread faster than a prairie fire
|
| Through the jaws of Heaven here we go
|
| Marching on to glory in a battle just (in a battle just)
|
| Staring down the devil eye to eye
|
| Riding on a pale horse to deliver us (to deliver us)
|
| Down into the darkest by and by
|
| I awoke this morning
|
| A lifetime come and gone
|
| The ending of a journey
|
| My destiny at dawn
|
| Yesterday behind me
|
| There is only now
|
| Every circle that was closing
|
| Is opening somehow
|
| And it’s clear to see the reasons
|
| Are woven deep in the wondering
|
| Something left to live for
|
| Nothing left to prove
|
| Fallen saints and angels
|
| Watch our every move
|
| Shallow ran the river
|
| That kept our worlds apart
|
| As we fought to feed the hunger
|
| In the hollows of our hearts
|
| Now it’s clear to me the reasons
|
| Are woven deep in the wondering
|
| The rain’s return reveals a future
|
| A gathering of souls
|
| Once barren fields now green surrounds us
|
| Our dreams of home are whole again
|
| We’re whole again
|
| Yesterday behind me
|
| There is only now
|
| Every circle that was closing
|
| Is opening somehow
|
| And it’s clear to see the reasons
|
| Are woven deep in the wondering
|
