  • I'd guess they would say we could set this world ablaze
    Please, please take my hand
    Please take my soul to rest
    So we can always be around

    It is hard to see
    Through all the haze at the top of the trees
    Hold my head on stable ground
    Watch as the Earth falls all around

    Please, please take my hand
    Please take my soul to rest
    So we can always be around

    Faltering foot steps
    Dead end path
    All I that need is this wise mans staff
    Encased in crystal he leads the way
    I guess they'd say we could set the world ablaze

    Please, please take my hand
    Please take my soul to rest
    So we can always be around

    I guess they would say we can set this world ablaze
    Hold my head on stable ground
    Watch as the Earth falls all around

    Take my black soul
    Alive in the fires that burn my skin
    Guide my eyes all through this maze
    I guess they'd say we could set the world ablaze

    All that I have seen
    Standing on the edge
    The foot of precipice
    Floating in the sea
    Past the king of swords
    Quickly to the shore
    The last baron
    The last baron

    Ghost of man surrounds me in my slumber
    I have no fear as your wing is my shelter

    Cyanide he craves
    Coursing through his veins
    Providing him with strength
    To see this to the end
    Afraid of psychic eyes
    Faith in mystic power
    The last baron
    The last baron

    Will he save me?
    Will he save me?

    I was standing staring at the world
    And I can't see it

    I was standing staring at the world
    And I still can't see it Writer/s: Brann Timothy Dailor, Troy Jayson Sanders, William Breen Kelliher, William Brent Hinds
