lyrics

When you’ve dreamed for so long, it takes another to wake you

Self-serving man doesn’t know what’s right
He only sees what lies beneath his feet
It takes another man to lift his eyes to better things
A circumstantial cure of vision so blind

Who that a-knockin’ at the open door?
I see a shadow in the blood of the sky
Who be anticipating lock and storm?
And casts a shadow in the back of my eye
There’s not a lot that I can give to you
It’s not a reason to get carried away
You come to warn me of a hell of unfortunate
What do you want from me?
What do you want from me?

Don’t be afraid
No time to explain
I see what you’re going to do
Look further sooner
Time is your ruler
I’m here to guide you through

Your dark resemblance of something I fear
It’s just a trick to scare me into your power
The possibility of this being real
A violent shock to kill the hope of the hour
You’re the intruder I’m the open door
My heart is beating like the blood of the sky

Trust is the key so
Listen to me
I’m here to open up your eyes
Shadow Shine

Come with me I’ll set you free
Though you’re not cast in chains
Beast of burden, darkened sermon
Rise o’er what remains

Self-serving man took the path ahead
But only dragged by guilt and fear of shame
We know experience has slain the worth of better men
But this Intruder comes to show salvation strong in mind



Now is the time
To open your eyes
And brave what the sun reveals
See in the distance
Time’s bold insistence
Know how mortality feels

I’m the intruder, I’m here to save you
I’m the intruder, and this is not a dream

I’m the intruder, I’ve come to save you
I’m the intruder, and this is not a dream

Trust is the key so
Listen to me
I’m here to open up your eyes
Shadow Shine

Time to rise the light defies you
Breaking through your pain
Fire of failure, Clean erasure
Rise o’er what remains

You have the key so
Don’t be deceived
You’ve always known it’s true
(This is not a dream)
I’m the Intruder
Time was my ruler
Now Time is over you

I’m the intruder, I’m here to save you
I’m the intruder, and this is not a dream

I’m the intruder, I’ve come to save you
I’m the intruder, and this is not a dream
