The Great Unknown

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
Winter softly falling to the groundCalmly waiting don? t you hear a soundWhen the world has fallen to the depths belowWhere the future? s open and the fear has grownAnd the path to follow to the great unknownWhere the dark has fallen and the seed is sownIn the selfish hearts of someThe nightmare? s comingWith the spilling blood of othersNow wringing throughNow the cup is spilling overWake to news of deathAnd the prophecy of sagesDestiny is metTo the depths of human mindThe cry is burningWith the mentor? s angerOf the lesson ringing trueAnd for those who live by and are dying by the swordThey will take their ideals with themJustify their endWhere the fools are lying and the meek are cryingWhere the wolves are preyingOn the weak aloneWhere the sons are dyingHear their mothers cryingAnd the distant sound of fireBegins againNever ending the desires of menIt? ll never be the same or calm againIn a time of changing heartsAnd great unknownIt? ll be the damnation and end of us allWhere the fools are lyingAnd the meek are cryingWhere the wolves are preyingOn the weak aloneWhere the sons are dyingHear their mothers cryingAnd the distant sound of fire begins againNever ending the desires of menIt? ll never be the same or calm againIn a time of changing heartsAnd great unknownIt? ll be the damnation and end of us allWhen the world has fallenAnd we stand alone
