Seven Gates 04:12
The wise man of age in earnest states The seven gates of fate And hesitates to recite the name Of which so few can only hope to claim And realize it's far too late to reclaim What was lost in the plague Throughout time the truth of life Is defined by your state of mind I tried to break the tide Sometimes you're left behind Laughing at the world Your shining self however small Watching your face growing old A deathless life far from home Break the tide Sometimes you're left behind
2.
The strange man with no name Resides in the old estate A reclusive, hermit, freak Hardly a word he speaks He spends all his time Trapped in his mind The townsmen think he's insane But I found the man And he spoke his plan He said to me That across the fields There lies a tree Lost for centuries Wisdom he sought The answer he thought Lied beneath those leaves And when I found that tree It smiled back at me His eyes resting at peace
3.
Everyone tells me it's easy It's not like it's someone you know A strange calm comes over you And you make the choice to live or die But I'm not a killer In a strange way, it was beautiful All the different shapes and colours Strewn across the scorched Earth It was like nothing I'd seen before But there was a familiarity at the same time The smell of burnt flesh and warm blood It was raw and organic That could've been me Everyone tries to tell me I made the right choice Everyone else had to do the same I don't want to be like everyone else They all stand and watch The words don't come easy As I sit there and tell them About the Man I Killed
