Revelations(Instrumental)
Revelations - Zack Hemsey
When the sun fades out
And the blackness shrouds
And the wolves all howl
And the stones fall loud
When the fear is found
And nightmares hound
Will you drown in the plague
That surrounds
Weight upon a point of pressure
Watch as it implodes
Wind upon a way of life
See how it erodes
Seek inside a rose to find
The wilting of a soul
Seize a path unknown
And then you'll walk the world alone
Now travel past the bones
Of prophets and warlords
Past the empty thrones
And treasures of gold hoards
Past the vacant vaults of pharaohs
That came before
Beyond the crowns of kings
Once mighty and so adored
And to the top of the ancient ziggurats
To the pyramids and plots
And the holy lands forgot
And drop by a place
Where you can find a spot
That can spot a panorama
Of the messages in crops
Then stop ponder
If it serves to insight
Does it shed a light
On the Armageddon that's in sight
Can it aid or help excite the armies
That march strong
The battle to find calm
That rattles the rage on
Climb on in the race to belong
Hang on in the face of the harm
Move through with the pace of a charge
And resist the alarm
To embrace all the wrong
Is it truth or just words in a song
Is it hope is it fear of forgone
Am I knight am I lowly the pawn
Let it known at the sound of the gong
This is Mayan times
Revelation
But I am not afraid
And I won't die today
So pull me under
I fear no thunder
Who knows why their stronghold
Couldn't hold me at bay
Why their strength
Couldn't control me away
Why the drive will
Not decline or decay
Or why design will
Leave alive one today
One to prey hard in a graveyard lay
One to take charge in a Braveheart way
A mournful mist to assist and portray
The tears of grown men
No pen will convey
Without a leader to address or sway
Our losses move under
And cross the raw thunder
Without an angel to embrace or save
Our hope is fused into these stones
That hold hundreds
And I choose to stand
Though I'm bruised and branded
I refuse the noose that I'm handed
My eulogy will read:
“To Hell he's been and sipped
Their scorched gin with a sinful grin”
Oh strange am I
Strangely eyed to look calm
As our worlds collide
Fools can find shade thinking fate is blind
Their safety buys stakes
For their purpose dies
Though worthless lives
Are worth less lives
My words revive and cry loud
For the certain sign
Till end of days sound
And the earth is dry
Know this is a farewell
But it's not goodbye
This is Mayan times
Revelation
But I am not afraid
And I won't die today
So pull me under
I fear no thunder
Weight upon a point of pressure
Watch as it implodes
The battle to find calm
That rattles the rage on
Know this is a farewell
But it's not goodbye
This is Mayan times
Revelation
But I am not afraid
And I won't die today
So pull me under
I fear no thunder
