Fade to Red

There will be signs in the sun, in the moon and stars

On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea

Men dying of fear, apprehensive of what is coming on the world, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken to the foundation

And we want everything to end, just like Nostradamus said

Everything is left for dead, fade to red

In the gust of the wind on your back

In your gut, in the tracks of your mind

This is how it ends

Everywhere there's hope, there is oblivion

And we want everything to end, just like Moses said

Everything is parted then, fade to red

In the crest of a wave, on the fields of a plain

In a far away land, it's all the same

Even when there's love, there is also hate

And when the sun breaks through the dark

We know we're close to it, close to it

And when the son shines through my heart

I know I'm close to it, close to it

From the words of a mystic monk

To a drunk on the edge of a nightmare

So it is, everywhere there's joy, there is also dread

From the throne of a militant king

With the wings of the fallen and they start to sing

"Inside I am just like you"

And we want everything to end, just like Nostradamus said

Everything is left for dead, fade to red

In the crest of a wave, on the fields of a plain

In a far away land, it's all the same

Even when there's love, there is also hate

And when the sun breaks through the dark

We know we're close to it, close to it

And when the son shines through my heart

I know I'm close to it, close to it

(close to it, close to it)

These are all of the words that were formed before the blood after the flood

Feel the hand of love

And sing the song of songs from up above

From the throne of a militant king

With the wings of the fallen as they start to sing

Even when there's love, there is also hate

In the crest of a wave, on the fields of a plain

In a far away land, it's all the same

"Inside I am just like you"

And when the sun breaks through the dark

We know we're close to it, close to it

And when the son shines through my heart

I know I'm close to it, close to it
