Already in your dreams my legacy's been told You see my floating grin and soulless eyes The world goes cold You: One two three four five I have spared your lives - for now Hold your breath and cheat death My shadow stalks in places light has never known My boot-heels know the grit and bitter taste of every road Those I've kept alive, I condemn to die - now! You can't change a spoon-fed fate High above I'll watch when birds of prey will feast and I'm Laughing as your hearts choke on their last beats Dance, my court of jester slaves Warm the dirt that fills your graves I am and have been (and I have been) The dark man of your dreams (man from your dreams) Brace now, while you're free (while you are free) To take your stand and face me (and face me) Never a humble man, I spread discord with my palms Tipping the cradle of life, I harvest the horror To see the world in flames, I'll walk to the end of the earth But miles and miles of highway Lie in between my target and I One last breath of airborne death High above I'll watch when birds of prey will feast and I'm Laughing as your hearts choke on their last beats Dance, my court of jester slaves Warm the dirt that fills your graves I am and have been (and I have been) The dark man of your dreams (man from your dreams) Brace now, while you're free (while you are free) To take your stand and face me (and face me) Never will I lay down and die; end has come for man!
