I can feel the powers at play I feel fear and I back away From what they send me, from what they send me Powers that thrive and powers so real Some arcane and some genteel
They make me humble They're here to rumble The simple dark or the simple light The simple wrong or the simple right Will not save me, if they enslave me
Here sits Jim and there sits John They call back from the great beyond Can you not hear them? You must not fear them Here one speaks in a garbled tongue Lies are spoken while truths are sung
It's never ended Beliefs extended Poet sits with cursed hag Martyrs gamble and saints will brag While angels scorn them, and we will mourn them
What do you think you been doin' here You think this is just some favor? There ain't no waiters in the parlor now And you don't pick the flavor
I had hours and I had days I had living explain its ways I had my loved ones, I had my loved ones I felt solid and I felt whole I had spirits wrapped round my soul
They were a treasure Unbridled pleasure The simple wrong or the simple right The simple dark or the simple light Will never be enough
Never be enough They will never be enough Never be enough
What do you think you been doin' here You think this is just some favor? There ain't no waiters in the parlor now And you don't pick the flavor
I can feel the powers at play I feel fear and I back away From what they send me From what they send me
I can feel the powers at play I feel fear and I back away From what they send me, from what they send me
