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?

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

For the dreams that you dread, ah

Can becomе just as real

As the blood that was shed, ah

With thе slash of his steel

Now the street walking dead, ah

Was quite a scene, wasn't it?

For the lost and mislead, ah

Were promised seats by the pit

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

We are 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

He appeared to ascend, ah

So we all stood there in awe

Now we have to pretend, ah

We didn't see what we saw

When the curtain unveiled, ah

To the sound of applause

That the king that we hailed, ah

Was the Wizard of Oz

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

Nothing ever lasts forever

We will go softly into the night
