The Ritual

Testament · The Ritual [1992]

Say hello again, my friends, I've got to go

The ritual calls to me, screams twist in harmony

Blinding lights reveal thoughts that should not be

The ritual calls to me; silent insanity



You really thought you'd never be the one who bleeds

It's all so clear to me now, why can't they see?



Revelations breaking through the truth distorts

Untimely accident; your precious mind is lost

Try to regain again, my friend, your sanity

The ritual calls to me; melodic agony



You really thought you'd never be the one who bleeds

It's all so clear to me now, why can't they see?



Fry away your mind

Walk behind the blind

Kill yourself killing time



Oh, whatcha gonna do when your life is sold to a world so cold?

Hey, whatcha gonna say when youre on your way on your darkest day?

Hey, darkest day...



Say goodbye again, my friends, I'm coming home

The ritual calls to me; distant reality

Unseen images expose what I can't see

The ritual calls to me, won't ever set me free



You really thought you'd never be the one who bleeds

It's all so clear to me now, why can't they see?



Fry away your mind

Walk behind the blind

Kill yourself killing time
