Now that I'm nearly dead

My senses in need turn around

Bed of stone becomes real

Before I get burnt

Now that I've cried rivers and seas

My forces drown into fear

Can I try a reckoning

Before I get embraced

I'll be ready to know

I'll be ready to know

I'll be ready to know

I'm not ready to know

Wolves await

Shining teeth

Howling again

Worms are fed

Bones are red

I'm feeling no pain

Naked and skinned

Dead and deceived

Awaiting the light

Couldn't help me understand

Darkest night remains at end

I'll be ready to know

I'll be ready to know

I'll be ready to know

I'm not ready to know

Now the time has come to say goodbye my friend

Some day we will meet at the place behind the sun

Recall what we have done in times past

Once more we sing that song again

I'll be ready to know

I'll be ready to know

I'll be ready to know

I'm not ready to know

Wait enough to be in sight

And maybe you will see

There's a slight chance that it's real

But will you bet on these winds

Take your time

Don't give up

Till your last drop of blood

If there's nothing to retain

You'll be ready to know

Before you understand

Leaving on a barbed wire

Diving on your own

It will let you go

Go
