Into the Depths of Sorrow

The apostle awoke Inside a dream Revealing what shall come to be With strengthened sight Tears of stone fell from his eyes Paving paths that none should follow Behold the Beginning of Sorrows Behold that which ascends with doom When the great river has dried We shall find the Kings from the East Do not seal the words of prophecy The time is soon at hand He who is unjust - let him be unjust still He who is righteous - let him be righteous still And let he who walks on the path which is clear Find peace within himself We are our own We reap what we sow Heed the warning cast among ye That bring sorrow upon the land The cities will fall The mountains will speak Among plague's disease Our efforts to weak If this is to come Once more shall we sing And upon the Earth fall to our knees Among all that we are and all that we may be All that we may be...

I. Descent of the Angels II. Prologue to the End We've been here through all the circles And lived with the godless tyranny One day all of you shall be perfect And understand this is to be He has determined the future All that was shall come to pass Revel in the unseen forces That bring his wisdom to the vast Listen to the voice of the teacher The peace and comfort that he brings Love can save the world from its destruction Pray that this shall come to be Days will come of tribulation many men will die Now that the Lord of Hosts is on the horizon And with it brings the promises of plight The Earth will soon be shaken As the day becomes the night Foretold we've come together as one To prepare our children once again Those who have chosen not to follow Are damned to live it to the end

Watch for me In darkness turn For as shadow I shall return After touch with spirit world However there I may be hurled... The dream of immortality Are we drifting in shades of nowhere Breath of death from wisp of life Ingest in me I ever stride Among the shores of tranquil nights Between the set and dawn of light... The dream of immortality Is leaving the joy of returning home Whisper's clouds envelope frail Colorless gaze which ever sails Across the world Once known to me I cease to begin to ever be... Somewhere inside ourselves we lie

I sat upon grassy linen Looking far into my thoughts Among deep and dark forests Lining a hazy grayish loch And there inside foreshadow dealt A vision to perception A prophetic form of imagery Manifest in shadows obscure And destiny falls to ruin No discourse but archaic filterings Of black and cryptic signs None helping a bleak understanding Of things not yet to come In the misty drizzle Entranced to deep in mind I saw an image foreboding Of the world which rests outside I saw a sea of tranquility At rest in the arms of the storm And destiny falls to ruin

I was but a traveler Floating endless through the sea On the other side of knowledge Through the pliancy of dreams And voices there upon the ship Spoke of radiant place's splendor Beautiful shores with sands of gold Wherein exists no torment or pain What was I looking for What could I have hoped for On the white ship I sailed through the night As we traveled for the Land Eternal We passed many a peaceful harbor Where we could have found vibrant life In a world known only in dreams But vibrant was not eternal So we continued upon our quest Through misty lagoons of sparkling blue And on through the pillars of the West The land must be adorned by beauty unknown Never before beheld The land of eternal life Which the ocean secrets had held And as we left those shores of hope And neared the end of the quest The waters rose up before me And fell there sharply beyond The white ship and I were taken Into man's withered and dying arms What was I looking for What could I have hoped for The time that was mine was to perish with life

In a blackened blur of crowding clouds I dropped my sorrow among the leaves I took my place as wise men do As the storm prepared its release Through raging winds and weeping skies I sat in the loneliness of solitude I washed my eyes in growing streams Earth's resistance True magnitude As black sky faded to blue And again the Earth felt the sunrise A silver mirror stood before me Bequeath of the silent rainbow A beautiful mirror of radiant splendor As ominous as the autumn moon It brought upon me endless wonder Yet spoke of some unknown doom As I reflect back on that day No words could ever tell... I saw my world But could not see myself In strange visions And through the windows of dreams We solemnly gaze beyond What is revealed to our eyes Exists already in our minds

Out of the sun appeared three men Or so it seemed to be Abram saw and rushed to greet These godlike entities Prepare a feast my chosen wife That we may honor these A festive mood soon turned to grief When told their destiny The leader spoke of degradation That was close at hand Came to verify a grievous outcry from the land Be the people righteous souls Then this I want to know But if the accusation's true To them my wrath I'll show Where angels dare to tread Where angels dare to tread No one is forgiven unless they know the word How can you speak what you haven't heard Up to the gates of Sodom went Emissaries of the Lord Lot was there and bowed to them As Abram did before Leave this city with wife and daughters Unto the mountains thee Death will come to sinners glory I tell you flee Where angels dare to tread Where angels dare to tread No one shall be saved unless they see the signs How can you see when you are blind A chill is running through me Remembering that day Thoughts of pity and sorrow For those about to die It would seem as though the world will never change On again this night Tread the angels and I...
