Once Upon a Time

[Verse 1]
Once upon a time
When the world was young
Before the darkness
When spring had sprung
There was potential
Brought forth in light
But now, there's only night

[Chorus]
The worst is yet to come
Prepare yourself
I wish it were not so
Yet it is

[Bridge]
Up from the bottom
Unearthed from the dirt
We thought you were lost
But now, you've returned

[Verse 2]
Silence creeps on empty streets
The heart unkept in Zion sleeps
Upon a time, in rested drеams
But turn the page, now wherе are we?

[Chorus]
But, the best is yet to come
I know I've seen it there
I have the voice to vocalize

[Post-Chorus]
Once upon a time
When the world was mine
Before the sky was black
Before the streets were filled with ash

[Outro]
Hidden in the treetops
The birds flee their nests
So, must we forsake and forget
Flee to the mountains
Flee through the trees
They scream, "No quarter!"
But, they'll die on their knees
