(Lyrics: Coss / Music: Macey)
Hear the chant
Across the breeze
Cloth of white
Sons to believe
All of them make their way
To the place of mass
Surround the haven await the time
Chanting the words of power
Read from the book of black
Believers kill to predict
Sacrifice the one
Dark ritual begun
Circle forms within the henge
Stones loom with eerie silence
High priest enters, a king to these
Bring the one forth
Release a call from under robes
I hear the words foreign to me
Here comes the one to be
The teller of a prophecy
Solo: Macey
Solo: White
Solo: Macey
See the dagger straight and true
Only silence never a scream
Under robes so thick they hide
Never to know who did this deed
Blood runs into the altar
To tell of things to come
Sacrifice predicts a tale
A tale of a future king
Solo: Macey
