Gatekeeper

Black Lotus

4

Confined inside this glass prison

Forever branded as the observer

Watching as the gate is locked andMillions feel the hands of murder

I dig a tunnel to the horizon

To fill it with the bodies I′ve taken

Trying to retrieve what was lost but

The gatekeeper has been awakened

Blood, Soul, forged into stone

I must acquire to make this heart a home

Hollowed eyes stay awake at night

Hollow body will it ever

See the light

See the light

A child that never saw the light of day

Leaves a hole inside me in its wake

Limbs torn, machines in their place

Stand up and move forward

Don't forget the day

That we set our home ablaze

To commemorate the day

That our mother was taken away

Fill the streets with crimson

No god can save you from the massacre

One look at my hands

And I can feel my insides churn

A face devoid of all but a chilling smile

How many tolls have been paid, what has he taken?

The equivalent exchange

Always taking more than it gives

With a gun between your eyes

I bring darkness as your red eyes grow dim

Tearing fathers from their families

Embodiments of sin

As the flesh is seared

Teach monsters to know fear

Confined inside this glass prison

Forever branded as the observer

Watching as the gate is locked and

Millions feel the hands of murder

I dig a tunnel to the horizon

To fill it with the bodies I′ve taken

Trying to retrieve what was lost but

The gatekeeper has been awakened

Immortality in my clutches

I will bare my soul for the taking

But with the gate obstructed

I feel the terror as I have been forsaken
