D5 C5 G5
Now that they see the disaster is done
Bb5 C5 D5
Now they put all the blame unto me
C5 G5
They feel I brought on a curse
Bb5 C5
Don't they know that the torment
E5 D5 B5
It stays, with me, knowing that I walk alone
Bb5 D5 E5
Through the eyes of the future I see
D5 B5
They don't even know what fear is
C5 D5
Don't they know I'm the one who is cursed
Purgatory beckons souls lost forever
Life after death or heaven hereafter
Heard the call of the seven whistlers again
Now Lucifer laughs, hell awaits
D#5 G#5 C#5 Bb5
I had their lives in my hands
D#5 C#5 G#5 Bb5
Their fate, their fortunes in my visions
G#5 C#5 Bb5 C#5
No one believed in my true prophecy
Bb5
And now, it's too late.
