I remember I was asking why
And someday you said I'd know
All these years, of fighting hard

And now it's finally come too close

I can't believe it's now happening to me

Oh, couldn't it wait a few hundred years
Destiny can't rest you see, now it's time
Time to cry your tears! Now cry!


The child of centuries, forgotten in time
You talk in circles of rhyme

Seer of places future and past
The warning you gave us is surely our last


Warning!

Behold the child, his pointing hand

Is raised in solemn grace
His eyes once wide with learning wonder
Now leave stains upon his face


Now see the hands of the working man
He's leaning back against the wall

Once busy hands are idle now
Standing ready for the fall! Our fall!


The signs will come as days past by
For those that claim to see
The blind will stay not choosing to die

Not believing the visions I've seen

Warning!
