At arm's length we were kept from the fight
We had a sip of the river, the wind, the clouds
We were guided by those who showed us the signs
The pendulum of Earth, the Sun, shone from high above
The spindle slowly weaves our fates
And the eclipse will come
All has long been decided
The Messiah will come and force all to their knees
Not byomnipotence, just by the fire in His eyes
We never asked for His portents, we lived free of them
A hundred generations, hundreds of years back.
The blazing fire of dawn will burn like pyres
The heavens will bear arms against Hell's evil
Packs of daring angels will lock the sky beneath domes,
Vanquish the gods of nature and outlaw the Sun
The Earth calls upon us to bring vengeance
A reason for the ancent call we heard for so long
Time is like a long and winding serpent
And from ashes the names of the Old Gods shall be reborn
The trees don't run, they die standing
And crash down to the Earth, and sleep as ashes
They soar again into the heavens, come the spring
Just as it was hundreds of years ago.
