Scene Beyond Dreams

So where to begin
Let's start with a child
And where will it end
Where the perfect guest meets his fate
In a scene beyond dreams

I stand where I stand
Convinced by the sight
We hold in our hands
Darkness and light where they meet
In a scene beyond dreams and a mother cries

And she cries
So we watch, and we wait
And we watch, and the hero dies

So where do we fit
Earthbound and chained
Can this be it
Visions of prophets and kings
From a scene beyond dreams

Scattered and armed
Fuel to the fire
Compassion, alarm
Images fade into scenes
Beyond dreams

The awaited appears
Branded with lies
He calls to his own
Loved and despised
From a scene beyond dreams and a mother cries

And she cries
And we watch, and we wait
And we watch, and the hero dies
