Put to the sword by an impish whim
Follow me now to a place we begin
Wrought with no anger, wrought with no fear
Devilish children playing here
Hidden in silence, below barren waste

Confusion hunger, am I still awake?

Have I ever told you about my time machine
Sit you down I´ll tell you everywhere I´ve been
I have lived a long life, life extraordinaire
Let me tell you about it, let me take you there
Does it really matter, it´s all in the mind
Let me tell you about it, listen what you´ll find

I am not a preacher, I am but a man
You cannot imagine what I´ve seen and done

I have lived a long life, I have seen the world
I could tell you stories, hair will stand on end
Stand among the steeples, stand upon the walls
I have seen a god´s face, I have no disgrace
I have seen the gods cry, howling in the wind
Where do I get started, when can I begin

I am not a preacher, I am but a man
You cannot imagine what I´ve seen and done

Sleep with a light that is dark to my eyes
Father and sons give me all of your lies
The brutal truth, that is never a lie
Full moon is out, as you look to the sky

I am not a preacher, I am but a man
You cannot imagine what I´ve seen and done

[Guitar Solos]

Open your heart and I´ll open your soul
Even in quieter moments I know

I am not a preacher, I am but a man
You cannot imagine what I´ve seen and done

Eerie collection, darkness is there
Wedded to danger, betrothed to despair
