Albums > Dark Dream > Lyrics > Track 4. Riches

I am the riches of the pauper, I am the weakness of the king
I am the strength of the cripple, I share in all his suffering,
I am the anger of the innocent, I am the vengeance of the meek
I am the quarry that no hunter would ever knowing dare to seek
Would ever knowing dare to seek...

I am the song heard by the deaf man, I am the vision of the blind
I am the word on the tongue of the dumb spoken out loud to all mankind,
I am the joy of the mourner, I am the freedom of the slave
I am the life within the dying, I am the laughter from the grave

And I will rattle at your window, and I will hammer at your door
I am the silence that is louder than the words you've chosen to ignore,
Tonight when the earth is shaken, tonight when the sky is turned to flame
In the sudden stillness at the centre of the storm
I am the voice that calls your name, I am the voice that calls your name

I am the truth you dare not entertain, I am the way you will not take
I am the gift that you continually refuse forever offered for your sake,
I am the life forever given, A thousand eyes will watch me die
Here upon the gallows of the human heart
I am the Lord of earth and sky
