River of Life

Intro solo: Vide

All my life, I've been sure, that the prophecies of war
Are nothing but delusions burning deep below

But now we are here, we stand before a trial
A trial that will change our lives

Now it is the hour to unite, we must fight
To bring light back to the sky
Bring an end to these times

But I know deep inside that the darkness will prevail
And wash our dreams away

(Now I know that life)
Will come with a sign
(When all living things will die)
The river will come
(And swallow us all alive)
I've tried to see the point of it all
A reason to hold on

I've traveled in vain, and now I've come to know

This feeling of hate still burns within my soul
I scour through what's left, been searching all my life
And now it is time to burn

Step into the fire, cast away, all my chains
But I'll still be left to fade
Leading back to my ways

Now I slowly return to decide where I will go
But no one seems to know

(Now I know that life)
Will come with a sign
(When all living things will die)
The river will come
(And swallow us all alive)
I've tried to see the point of it all
A reason to hold on

The night closes in, the waves begin to form
A storm with the power to destroy us all
The sky turns to red, the terror tears my eyes
I stand and embrace it all

I've come to accept
That our fate isn't ours to decide

(Now I know that life)
Will come with a sign
(When all living things will die)
The river will come
(And swallow us all alive)
I've tried to see the point of it all
A reason to hold on

The river of life
(Only stories will take us there)
We have made our stand
(Now we drown in an endless sea)
I've failed to see the point of it all
No reason to hold on
