Testament - The Ballad

The Ballad

In days of old
when the books were untold
speak of a world crushed by sin
quot;The people wi will mourn
of a war to be bornquot;
Nobody would listen to him
Think back in time
when in the future you find
is so faint that it´s too hard to see
Don´t disavow his word
for the truth must be heard
cause the preacher tells visions he sees
In 1906
Like the future predicts
the city wi will crumble to the bay
then what´s in store
when the worlds go to war?
peace wi will have come another day
then came the one
In the year of ´41
warfare would light up the sky
he beckoned the call
of the future for all
blinded by what´s in his eyes
In days of old
when the books were untold
speak of a world crushed by sin
quot;The people wi will mourn
of a war to be bornquot;
Nobody would listen to him
Think back in time
when in the future you find
is so faint that it´s too hard to see
Don´t disavow his word
for the truth must be heard
cause the preacher tells visions he sees
Listen to these words I preach
catastrophic lessons they shall teach
Listen to these words I preach
catastrophic lessons they shall teach
