I've waited for so long
For the coming of this day
And though others would fly away to a distant place
I think I'll stay
And when hope handed in you the way
In this solace I see
A light piercing the darkness
Coming on the winds
Of imagery
When all i know is crumbling
I am becoming something more than humanity could
ever allow me to be
I remember a day when
my dreams of escape
Seemed so far way

Let's go back in time, you and I
To my
Initiation to your false empire
You greased you aimed
And then you split
While I
once again pushed away my conscience

Yet always, it seems
I cannot fathom the plateau
Without first the pit

Against the goads there can be no pleading
Because every thought reaps an action
And for you, my former captor
All the earthy wisdom and wealth
Cannot erase your susceptibility
To brutal morality
And the funny thing about justice
Is that it always comes when you least expect it
So friends it won't be long
Seems I stole the smile, right from wrong

So forever now we'll find
our peace inside this
We'll find our solace in your silence,
And though I once desired your twisted sense of fame
I know, I know that in myself I'm nothing

Nothing
Nothing
Nothing but words of the 'meaningless'

You have given me all I'll ever need
The nerve, the greed the lust for justice
Now I will never rest
Until the meaningless become your silence

...and you're
over
over
over
out!

Now I mean to thank you once again, with this
My, my, my goodbye kiss
You broke my heart
But something tells me that I won't miss it
And on this very day
And on this very hill
While the heavens are hushed
In anticipation
Beckoning, we'll have ouselves a reckoning
And all of the oppressed will greet you

...and you're
over
over
over
out!

over
over
over
