Tell me now why you’re waiting and watching in rapt expectation?
Do you not see what is happening before you?
Your life goes on by in myriad disasters,
Yet all you do is tread in the waters....

As your life goes towards the end of the whorl,
Are you still there not awakening to the world around you?
The lives all around you speak and are listening....
For they know that you are a pole axed steer for kill....

We all wait for a sign, but do they ever speak to you true?
All the signs are of the end of your time...

All this looking, but you see not what’s revealing...
Yet the path ends not here, for you never knew of why...
For your life exists in the ever-after....
Not above or below, for thy death comes from within...

Is this your nightmare you are allowing to happen?
Is the mask you see just a false view on your eyes?
Is your faith in yourself somehow flagging?
For all you have done is listening to some other lie....

Yet I have watched,
And always prayed for you to see your fate
For you are never alone in this cold and utter misery...
Your end will never be...
For the graves you have dug,
And the lives you have saved...

Do you question the end of your hands?
Do you question your own face in this sand?
For its warning you of your future maladies...
Look now, your end is far off hand...
For you now see an unknown face in the black sand...
A now prevented future tragedy...
Something done for a friend, before a messy breakup, and reunion by a friend too. Inspired by iron maiden.
