Dark Harvest, Pt. 1

Nothing Lasts Forever

Close your eyes, let the dream begin again
There he is, that's the killer, can you picture him? (That's him)
Just the shadow of a man, a bullet fired long before your world began
A thing more terrible than fate, it’s not the rule of love or hate
But the instinct of volition coming through your gate

Better hush beneath the covers, now hess at your door
Or just lie still, it ain’t you that he’s looking for
Another stranger in the night, it ain’t your business if he's wrong or if he’s right
A thing more terrible than chance, a crime forgiven in advance
When the finger pulls the trigger
Blood will fall everywhere but on his hands (We all fall down)

Angel of God, my guardian dear, to whom His love commits me here
Every day be at my side, to light, to guard, to rule and guide
With all I do, and all I say, from your path I will not stray
Now keep dear family close to thee, and in death we’ll be joined through Cavalry
Amen

In the morning time to take a stand (We all fall down)
We'll have to strike in revenge if we want the upper hand (We all fall down)
The execution of a plan is something bigger than the life of just one man
Like a campfire in the night there’s no need to justify it
It's the feeling of the darkness that surrounds you that makes it right

Pick your heroes wisely lest they fall to the ground
Well, goddamit we all fall down!
