Second Sight

I foresee ages of chaos
 But my ordeal has yet just started
 For these ominous signs
 Are bound to plague me
 Haunt for centuries to come
 My healing incantations
 Are destined for failure
 My unremitting warnings and threats
 Will go unheeded, such is my curse
 Why should it be incumbent upon me
 To redeem their faults?
 You, the one who spurns the past
 Are now, but worthy to be last
 Thy choices are errors
 I shall thus abandon thou
 To thy gloomy fate
 I can see the future
 In the light of the past
 I cannot stop this ineluctable doom
 From raining over the world
 Alas, this obnoxious portend
 Will turn out to be abiding truth
 From time immemorial
 Man has taken refuge in oblivion
 They've exchanged future
 For the present enjoyment
 Nothing will change, history has set
 Her implacable march into motion
 There will be no escape
 You, the one who spurns the past
 Are now, but worthy to be last
 Thy choices are errors
 I shall thus abandon thou
 To thy gloomy fate
 You, the one who spurns the past
 Are now, but worthy to be last
 Thy choices are errors
 I shall thus abandon thou
 To thy gloomy fate
