about
Song about a dying man, whom lost everything.
This is the story of Job...
lyrics
There was a man
In the land of Uz
Who revered light
And shunned the dark
Among the men
Admired by all
A blameless man
Like no one else
But misery arrived in his life
With painful boils, forsaken by his kin
In all of this he did not falter
Keeping away from turmoil waters
No, I will not fall
In the valley of darkness
No, I’ll not be unseen
No more tears, I will rise my head
Ready for good, ready for setbacks
Ready for hunger, ready for war,
But without you I will lose, I will lose
Now in throe
Left behind
With fallen flesh
Awaiting death
Tempted by fear
Confused by grief
Losing faith
Weakened spirit
But misery arrived in his life
With painful boils, forsaken by his kin
In all of this he did not falter
Keeping away from turmoil waters
No, I will not fall
In the valley of darkness
No, I’ll not be unseen
No more tears, I will rise my head
Ready for good, ready for setbacks
Ready for hunger, ready for war,
But without you I will lose, I will lose
When reason fails to explain your ruin,
there's inner strength to keep your path,
when madness makes you blind and sick
there's only pain...
Only pain keeps you alive!!!
