lyrics

Verse 1:
The sentinel of time won't let us leave,
Trapped in the tangled web he weaves,
He is the lord of destruction,
Refrigeration unit of the soul,
The self proclaimed prince of demons,
A false horizon really takes it's toll,

Chorus:
He's the sentinel of time,
The sentinel of time,

Verse 2:
The serpent of eternity can never fail,
As he locks you away in his jail,
The greatest story that was ever denied,
Has just ruined your day,
So keep watching "Monsoon Poultry Hospital"
Just keep looking away,

Chorus.

Verse 3:
Can't remember how it used to be,
No idea of what it is to be free,
He points up to the hollow moon,
Says he created it all,
And though you're smart enough to know that he's lying,
You can do nothing till he falls,

Chorus.

Verse 4:
I don't want to be a prisoner,
Of someone who does not exist,
But so many will do acts so unspeakable,
To anyone not on their list,
For they feel that they must serve their god,
I personally find that rather odd,

Chorus.

Verse 5:
And so I say you better think for yourself,
And don't just follow one old book,
Why get stuck in someone else's lie,
Why not just have a look,
Be yourself...whatever that is,
Cause in the end...that's all there is.

Chorus.
