Held Together with hopes and dreams A wing a prayer and twine It all ends where it begins Consumed by the passage of time Born to ride the lightning Suited for the task His wicked ways secure his ticket to ride So throw the switch and crown the king Gathering souls with reckless contempt To fuel a hundred year ride Death sentence absolution Murderous nomad of time Born to ride the lightning Suited for the task His wicked ways secure his ticket to ride So throw the switch and crown the king Trying to get back to the time that started it all to right a wrong 300 souls and 2000 volts projects him into the past And these were his last words Upon his exit The weight of the destruction iv'e caused It sits on top of me Like a mountain of ice So alone so far from home I keep on killing them To get back to my love
