In The Valley Of The Dying Sun

In the valley of the dying sun

I walk a crooked path alone

I came across the shadow of a man

With an angel's breath

'O boy' he said to me

'I see your future'

'Though you long for peace

The sword is your father

I'm thinking of you

I'm thinking of you when I kill a good man

To keep myself from being killed by him

I'm thinking of you

I'm thinking of you when I hold my girl

And wonder if she'll ever love again

I'm thinking of you

Wash the blood off my hands

Bathed in the powder of a thousand guns

I am the king of sorrows

Watered by the tears of the innocent ones

The river grows

It moves

It swells

'Son' It calls to me

'Your days are numbered

Sow the seeds you will

But I am the reaper'

'I'm thinking of you

I'm thinking of you when you kill a good man

To keep yourself from being killed by him

I'm thinking of you

I'm thinking of you when you hold your girl

And wonder if she'll ever love again

I'm thinking of you

Wash the blood off your hands'

I howled at the moon like a wolf in the night

You want to finish it

We're gonna finish it right

And then I felt it with a chill up my spine

There are no words to use that truly describe

The glory of the angel or the terror in me

Tonight will be my ending or tonight my new beginning

All through the night

I wrestled the angel

To undo the curse

That's burdened me all of my life

And for the first time I could see

That God was not my enemy

"I'm thinking of you"

Like pieces of the sun

Our light burns on and on and on

Like stars in the night sky we shine

I'm living to shine on
