Second Sight - Adagio

I foresee ages of chaos

But my ordeal has yet just started

For these ominous signs

Are bound to plague me

Haunt for centuries to come

My healing incantations

Are destined for failure

My unremitting warnings and threats

Will go unheeded, such is my curse

Why should it be incumbent upon me

To redeem their faults?

You, The one who spurns the past

Are now, But worthy to be last

Thy choices are errors;

I shall thus abandon thou

To thy gloomy fate

I can see the future

In the light of the past

I cannot stop this ineluctable doom

From raining over the world

Alas, this obnoxious portend

Will turn out to be abiding truth

From time immemorial

Man has taken refuge in oblivion

They’ve exchanged there future

For the present enjoyment

Nothing will change, History has set

Her implacable march into motion

There will be no escape

You, The one who spurns the past

Are now, But worthy to be last

Thy choices are errors;

I shall thus abandon thou

To thy gloomy fate
