[02:45.00] II. Stones of Years
[02:57.00] Has the dawn ever seen your eyes?
[03:04.00] Have the days made you so unwise?
[03:09.00] Realize, you are.
[03:25.00] Had you talked to the winds of time,
[03:32.00] Then you'd know how the waters rhyme,
[03:37.00] Taste of wine,
[03:39.00] How can you know where you've been?
[03:44.00] In time you'll see the sign
[03:51.00] And realize your sin.
[05:40.00] Will you know how the seed is sown?
[05:47.00] All your time has been overgrown,
[05:52.00] Never known.
[06:07.00] Have you walked on the stones of years?
[06:14.00] When you speak, is it you that hears?
[06:19.00] Are your ears full?
[06:22.00] You can't hear anything at all.

 IV. Mass
[07:56.00] 

 The preacher said a prayer.
[07:58.00] 
 Save every single hair on his head.
[08:00.00] 
 He's dead.
[08:02.00] 

 The minister of hate had just arrived too late to be spared.
[08:06.00] 
 Who cared?
[08:08.00] The weaver in the web that he made!
[08:13.00] 

 The pilgrim wandered in,
[08:14.30] 
 Commiting every sin that he could
[08:17.10] 
 So good...
[08:18.50] 

 The cardinal of grief was set in his belief he'd saved
[08:23.20] From the grave
[08:25.40] 
 The weaver in the web that he made!
[10:23.10] 

 The high priest took a blade
[10:25.00] To bless the ones that prayed,
[10:26.50] And all obeyed.
[10:29.10] The messenger of fear is slowly growing, nearer to the time,
[10:34.00] 
 A sign.
[10:35.40] 
 The weaver in the web that he made!
[10:40.10] 者

 A bishops rings a bell,
[10:41.30] 
 A cloak of darkness fell across the ground
[10:44.50] 
 Without a sound!
[10:45.80] 

 The silent choir sing and in their silence,

[10:49.00] Bring jaded sound, harmonic ground.
[10:52.50] 
 The weaver in the web that he made!
[10:54.50]

 VI. The Battlefield
[13:13.10] 
 Clear the battlefield and let me see

[13:20.50] All the profit from our victory.

[13:27.30] You talk of freedom, starving children fall.

[13:35.10] Are you deaf when you hear the season's call?
[13:56.50] 

 Were you there to watch the earth be scorched?

[14:04.50] Did you stand beside the spectral torch?

[14:12.50] Know the leaves of sorrow turned their face,
[14:19.20] 
 Scattered on the ashes of disgrace.


[16:10.30] Every blade is sharp; the arrows fly

[16:17.20] Where the victims of your armies lie,

[16:25.10] Where the blades of brass and arrows reign
[16:32.00] 
 Then there will be no sorrow,
[16:35.20] 
 Be no pain.
[16:40.20]
