Overture

[Intro] And with this message that I bring to you A beacon of light to see you through For the time is on our side And a holy man does say to me To always to be blind and never to see It's not the way he planned it, oh no [Verse 1] The time has come to gather up your thoughts For you have said your piece The lords of light will change this land From famine into feast The buildings that once stood so tall Have crumbled to the ground The silver warriors who came in force Are nowhere to be found [Verse 2] ''Time is the essence'', the priests do say To restore your faith in man For the job you do and the role you play Will help rebuild this land Through empty streets and dusty fields We'll fight for what we need Protected by our swords and shields We can replant the seed [Verse 3] The roads ahead are long and winding On which the bandits thrive But we have the power of finding Illusion to keep us alive So through the valleys and over the hills We'll march and sing in rhyme We'll fight until we lose our will For essence is our time [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] The sun, the moon, the darkened sky The morning dew reflecting in my eye The rising mist, the dampened earth Are just reminders of what life's worth [Guitar Solo] Whoa whoa yeah Whoa whoa yeah Whoa whoa yeah [Outro] And with this message that I bring to you A beacon of light to see you through For time is on our side For time is the essence
