Lyrics

[Verse 1]

We're here in the after

Of a murderous crafter

The past is spun like a yarn and mangled

With flesh and blood and bones, I wonder

Did no one hear the distant thunder?

[Verse 2]

The autumnal reaper

The stains of this creeper

Will last, the shine and the sham entangled

Like salting earth with tears of Jesus

He sliced and diced our dreams to pieces

[PreChorus]

For the dreams that you dread

Can become just as real

As the blood that was shed

With the slash of his steel

Now the street walking dead

Was quite a scene, wasn't it?

For the lost and misled

Were promised seats by the pit

[Chorus]

We will break away together

I'll be the shadow

You'll be the light

Nothing ever lasts forever

We will go softly

Into the night

[Bridge]

We're leaving this city

So, this is farewell

Goodbye seven sisters

And Saint Jezebel

The moon in the gutter

Has a story to tell

One day he will come back

From the bowels of hell

[PreChorus]

He appeared to ascend

So we all stood there in awe

Now we have to pretend

We didn't see what we saw

When the curtain unveiled

To the sound of applause

That the king that we hailed

Was the Wizard of Oz

[Chorus]

We will break away together

I'll be the shadow

You'll be the light

Nothing ever lasts forever

We will go softly

Into the night

[Chorus]

Nothing ever lasts forever

We will go softly

Into the night
