Reliqa
The Bearer of Bad News
[Intro]
Child, you were a martyr
You carried all of the world then
Just a child, but a pillar of the Earth
(Look at what they've done to me!)
Place your hands together and remember how...
...do I see inside myself?
[Verse 1]
I don't wanna be the reaper
No more dancing on a grave, nah!
But I got these shoes shined
The cloak is mine, and I'm getting braver
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I've been waiting for you
[Chorus]
Cast your sorrows away
For I can conjure lifetimes
A futurе so out of reach for you is hanging from my hand
So take all you want and be еndless like I am
[Verse 2]
I don't wanna sit and play naysayer
But these odds don't fall in your favour
So go and take that promise that I gave ya
Swallow it whole and call me your saviour
[Chorus]
Cast your sorrows to flames
Not in a thousand lifetimes
Did they imagine a chance for you, now it's hanging from my hand
So take what you want and be part of a higher plan
Be vile like I know you can
Be endless like I am
[Bridge]
I have shown you everything, the essence at my command
Unbound and without end – when I walk the moon it guides my hand, and
There's a change in the air tonight, and the dust unsettled stirs
And the wind picks up and delivers us worlds away from what we were
[Outro]
Now I can control your choice
Steal the breath right from your lungs and harvest your voice
Cast down, you swear you're not to blame
But if my story lives, then rest assured they'll use your
Name
