anna pest & colin macandrew - a vision of the end lyrics

a squall of rain and thunder
lapping at my heel as i take to the stairs
hot lead, red blood; asunder again the night
swallowing me now

it’s been nine years
since the night he came to this place
and my course was altered forever
his errant steps to retrace
and protect what’s left to remember

little orphan, cold skin wet with blood
with these hands, i brought him back to life
just to watch him grow to use his own
to wrest the life from another
now, the time has come to sеt things right

i slip away unperceived
and undеr siege
i will do what must be done

and though i walk through the valley
of the shadow of death
i fear no evil but the evil in my heart
as i stumble in between
my conviction that all life is sacred
and the will to snuff it out to do my part
i trace the monster’s steps
from west to east and east to west again
i slither through the daylight
and i stumble through the dark
traverse the crepuscular
sp+ce between the two
to find the truth before
this lie tears me apart
a macabre prose composed
with wine+dark skid marks on the floor
a door emmured in plaster laid in haste
how many people died here?
the question is enough
to make a madman of a saint
a nightmare was awakened
by this nascent taste

a vision of the end to come
a moor beneath the cold, dead sun

i follow the body trail
fallout of cindered hail
always a minute too late
always trailing a step behind
oblivious to the mind’s eye
of this golden+haired beast i chase

harbinger rainfall
an echoing shot from the forest
outsiders walk among them
spreading their instruments
sowing the seeds of distrust
to turn them on one another
blood on the asphalt
a slaughterous fog rises
lightning crashing right over our heads
and the devil himself stops
to turn up his chin in disgust
as h+ll claims this once peaceful town
my finger over the trigger
this road has taken everything from me
it’s led me right to this moment
somehow, i can’t help but freeze
i see h+ll in his eyes
and with his velvet tongue
he opens up his mouth to speak

“let me show you a vision of the end
can you see it now?
do you understand?”
