Man in the Sky - Heir Apparent

Scattered raindrops on the windowpane

Hear the rumbling from the freight train

Temples crumble in the distance

Strangers scattering seeking refuge from the rain

Seeds of humanity

Planted by the wicked and the damned

Feeding insanity

Follow their orders, decadent commands

Concede to the notion that

Conviction is the law of the land

Your deity is devotion

And your common sense is contraband

The world has made its choice

There is no turning back now

We chose not to progress

But rather to forget

It’s time to pay the price

Can’t hold on any longer

With stares as cold as ice

The fact remains that

The world keeps on spinning

In the palm our hands

Right from the beginning

We’ve been betrayed by our fellow man

We took our hopes and dreams

And gave them away to the man in the sky

We begged and prayed to the man in the sky

Our faith betrayed by the man in the sky

With all the secrets of humanity

Mankind all along has held the key

Will we be cursed for eternity?

Just look ahead and follow me…
