I'd guess they would say

We could set this world ablaze

Please, please take my hand

Please take my soul to rest

So we can always be around

It is hard to see

Through all the haze at the top of the trees

Hold my head on stable ground

Watch as the earth falls all around

Please, please take my hand

Please take my soul to rest

So we can always be around

Faltering footsteps

Dead end path

All that I need is this wise man's staff

Encased in crystal he leads the way

I guess they'd say we could set the world ablaze

Please, please take my hand

Please take my soul to rest

So we can always be around

I guess they would say we can set the world ablaze

Hold my head on stable ground

Watch as the earth falls all around

Take my black soul

Arrive in the fires that burn my skin

Guide my eyes all through this maze

I guess they'd say we could set the world ablaze

All that I have seen

Standing on the edge

The foot of precipice

Floating in the sea

Past the king of swords

Quickly to the shore

The last baron

The last baron

Ghost of man

Surrounds me in my slumber

I have no fear

As your wing is my shelter

Cyanide he craves

Coursing through his veins

Providing him with strength

To see this to the end

Afraid of psychic eyes

Faith in mystic power

The last baron

The last baron

Will he save me?

Will he save me?

I was standing staring at the world

And I can't see it

I was standing staring at the world

And I can't see it

I was standing staring at the world

And I can't see it

I was standing staring at the world

And I can't see it

I was standing staring at the world

And I can't see it

I was standing staring at the world

And I can't see it

All that I have seen

Standing on the edge

The foot of precipice

Floating in the sea

Past the king of swords

Quickly to the shore

The last baron

The last baron

Ghost of man

Surrounds me in my slumber

I have no fear

As your wing is my shelter

Cyanide he craves

Coursing through his veins

Providing him with strength

To see this to the end

Afraid of psychic eyes

Faith in mystic power

The last baron

The last baron

Will he save me?

Will he save me?

Will he save me?

I guess they would say

We can set this world ablaze

Please, please take my hand

Please take my soul to rest

So we can always be around

It is hard to see

Through all the haze at the top of the trees

Hold my head on stable ground

Watch as the earth falls all around

Please, please take my hand

Please take my soul to rest

So we can always be around

Faltering footsteps, dead end path

All that I need is this wise man's staff

Encased in crystal he leads the way

I guess they'd say we could set the world ablaze
