Lyrics

[Verse 1] I am the darkness Born out of light I am the force, the fire That burns here tonight Bringing the future To all mankind Guider of life—of death The sight for the blind [Pre-Chorus 1] Your future lies within my eyes What I predict will terrify I can't control what comes to be From the past to the present to eternity [Chorus 1] I am Nostradamus Do you believe I am Nostradamus That I conceive [Verse 2] Master of chaos Anger and rage I hold the key My presence will unlock the cage I am your witness The one who can tell Bearing the sword—the shield To your heaven from hell [Pre-Chorus 2] As I unfold the mystery I change the course of history With premonitions from the void Will you live? Will you die? Will your worlds collide? [Chorus 2] I am Nostradamus The hand of fate I am Nostradamus With love and hate [Bridge] Lost in this vortex The mystery begins Will you be victim Saved from your sins Time is illusion Trapped in the skies Destiny's calling Here from my eyes [Lead: Glenn] [Lead: K.K. & Glenn] [Spoken] Many years ago, a boy was born A boy with a gift A gift that would be the envy of all mankind To see what no other could—great visions of the future Or would a curse be bestowed on the boy The boy whose name was Nostradamus... [Chorus 3] I am Nostradamus Do not forsake I am Nostradamus Your life's at stake [Chorus 4] I am Nostradamus The lightning rod I am Nostradamus The voice of God [Outro] Celestial comets Reign towards earth Alchemy's tempest Predicting your worth Pray for deliverance Escape if you can For I have borne witness To the purging of man
