Vivid County - Paradise Lyrics

I've seen the rise and fall of a thousand civilizations
I've watched over the lives of a million generations
I've watched the blood flow down the streets of warring nations
I've crawled through plagues that decimate the populations
I hold the hands of those who are running out of time
I lead the souls that leak from dead and crying eyes
Now, where they go is all dependent on their lives
Everlasting damnation or a peaceful paradise?
From kings to peasants, royalty or not
All are buried deep and left to rot
Time passes, memories are locked
Do you see the brightest light?
It's time to rest and sleep forever, child
Come with me to see your family now
Let's count your sins, and see the life of thou
Will you enter paradise?
I guide the weak and the wicked
All the innocent and the twisted
Gentle with the hungry and sickened
Pity the ones the Lord has convicted
When you see my globe & my scythe, you'll know it's time
Time to return to the deep Earth, eternal rebirth
Lose your riches down the Styx, and burn the bridges
What's this I see? A heart so icy, screaming "Why me?"
I find a soul, a life that's filled with sin
Buried deep is where it all begins
Eyes are rolled with pale and sweaty skin
This poor soul has overdosed
But you committed sins far too great
You became consumed with rage and hate
And while your crime was fully justified
It's the reason you have died
I guide the weak and the wicked
All the innocent and the twisted
Gentle with the hungry and sickened
Pity the ones the Lord has convicted
When you see my globe & my scythe, you'll know it's time
Time to return to the deep Earth, eternal rebirth
Lose your riches down the Styx, and burn the bridges
What's this I see? A heart so icy, screaming "Why me?"
When you see my globe & my scythe, you'll know it's time
Time to return to the deep Earth, eternal rebirth
Lose your riches down the Styx, and burn the bridges
What's this I see? A heart so icy, screaming "Why me?"
