And with this message
That I bring to you

A beacon of light

To see you through

For time is on our side

And a holy man

Does say to me

To always to be blind

And never to see

It's not the way he planned it
Oh no

The time has come to gather up your thoughts
For you have said your piece

The lords of light will change this land
From famine into feast

The buildings that once stood tall
Have crumbled to the ground

The silver warriors who came in force
Are nowhere to be found

Time is the essence the priests do say
To restore your faith in man

For the job you do and the role you play
Will help rebuild this land

Through empty streets and dusty fields
We'll fight for what we need

Protected by our swords and shields
We can replant the seed

The roads ahead are long and winding
On which the bandits thrive

But we have the power of finding
Illusion to keep us alive

So through the valleys and over the hills
We'll march and sing in rhyme

We'll fight until we lose our will
For essence is our time

The sun the moon

The darkened sky

The morning dew

Reflecting in my eye

The rising mist

The dampened earth

Are just reminders of what life's worth

Whoah yeah

Whoah yeah

Whoah yeah

And with this message

That I bring to you

A beacon of light

To see you through

For time is on our side

For time is the essence
