MESSIAH

lyrics: J. Morse © 1983

Sun parches dry all that ever lived
Here in this land
Amazing that any survive
To be led by his hand
Violent tantrums of murderous dust
Blowing in his face
Endless caresses of anger
Display our disgrace
   Out of the sands comes the soul
   Who claims the starring role
   In this hopeless power play
   See far beyond the sands
   He has the masses in his hands
   And nothing will ever cause his path to sway
     Messiah. . . of a thousand men
     Look and see just where he's been
     Realize the views he's stated
     Can control the souls he's captivated. . .

Storm cross the desert, lay siege
To the valley of green
He's the Messiah, leading all whom
His dark eyes has seen
The planet now falls into darkness
As war rages on
People are crying in terror
What have they done?
   Out of the sands comes the soul
   Who claims the starring role
   In this hopeless power play
   See far beyond the sands
   He has the masses in his hands
   And nothing will ever cause his path to sway
     Messiah. . . of a million men
     Orders from a poisoned pen
     Look and see exactly where he's been
     Realize the views he's stated
     Can control the souls he's captivated
     For awhile, at least, until he marches on. . . again.
