lyrics

When the messenger arrived with news
The land was covered in endless grey
The words he spoke struck with fear
A spell was cast on that May

Can't you see
The sky is turning black
Who could bring
This curse upon the land

A cloud of dust came from hell
Blocked the sun out from the sky
Seems to me we should start to pray
Can’t you see the end is nigh

Glory be to the father,
And to the son,
And to the holy spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now,
And ever shall be,
World without end

The village searching for the cause
Began to place the blame on me
Put on trial for no crime that I can see

I’m not guilty I will not confess
I’ll prove my innocence in this life or the next

No...still not the time for me
I’m going to see the sea
As well as the sky today
No...still not the time for me
I’m not the one who sinned
Kneeling at you to pray

O please god, don't let me see
When the earth turns black
O please god, I’m down on my knees
For when the earth turns black

I’m not going to die by your hand today

No...it's just your time to leave
All my creations here
As well as the sky today
No... this is your time to leave
You are the one who sinned
Spreading disease on my realm

Please give me your soul

O please god, don't let me see
When the earth turns black
O please god, I’m down on my knees
For when the earth turns black

I’m not going to die in this field today
Where sinners lay down and wish to go
