On The Eve of the Great Decline

Born amidst the wonder
Born among the lost
Watching the abandonment of reason
Taking in the moment
Taking up the years
Witnessing the end of our good season

Stirring strange emotions
Conjuring the fears
Each one sees the things they really want to see
Made a world of wonder
We made a world of pain
Now the days will come for the apostasy

I am watching it fall around me
I am listening to every sound I hear
I am doing what one man can do
As the daylight is fading on the Eve
Of the Great Decline...

Dumbing down the Culture
Chaos on the Rise
Watching all the beauty as it's waning
Scene is so familiar
Like words that I have read
The world is lost but soon a new one gaining

I was born amidst the wonder
I was born among the lost
Watching the abandonment of reason
Taking in the moment
Taking up the years
Witnessing the end of our good season

I am watching it fall around me
I am listening to every sound I hear
I am doing what I can do
As the daylight is fading on the Eve
Of the Great Decline...
