The Answer

As I look into the cave
The fog doth fill my eyes
Inside lies the answer
A cause for my demise
Blinding light appearing
The beast in silhouette
Roaring growl of thunder
The end not over yet
Terror fill my spirit
I swear I'll never rest
I feel my pulse to quicken
My heart beats through my chest
Standing there before me
A sight seen by few men
The sweat is pouring on me
His eyes remember me
One, two, three, four
Liar, cheater
Help me make a stand
True, if this take you over
Come the power they demand
Pain, disaster
This thing and persecution
Light the light, show me the way
Where lies a solution
Reaching to the grave
Beyond the story tells of fame
This formed into a curse
Revelation once we won aim
Father, help me
For faith is growing thin
Untie another scourge
Being born into a sin
No, no, no
Holy Father, help me
Take me into white
Break me of this spell
Which stands between eternal life
Eternal fire, we are one
Happiness is none
Our death becomes the Devil
And I'm the Devil's son
