Dawn Of Revelation

We who gather by this fire
To remember who we were
To recall the days of yore
To recall the days before

Hear the crackling, stoke the flames
Conjure long-forgotten names
Look long enough and see
Where the referent wriggles free

I will turn these stones to bread
And all who hunger will be fed
Plates will shift and the earth will groan
And no one here is going to die alone

Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah

Live in hope, walk in fear
Let them come, let them gather here
Meaning well, boding ill
Let their hundreds crest the hill

As you were, so they are
Orphans from a dying star
Let them cluster, each to each
Like smooth rocks on a distant beach

Look upon them there and know
We will all go when we go
Look into these eyes and see
How we all will be made free

Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah

Beyond the grasp of the grave
Free as driftwood on the waves
Through their fingers like a fish
Free from the clutches of the flesh

I will bring this word to them
Last to first and stern to stem
The king's gonna sit upon the throne
And no one here is gonna die alone

Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, yeah
Ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah
