Premonition

I had a dream the other night, a dream I can't forget
It woke me with a sense of doom and soaked my sheets in sweat
This vision plagues my every thought, the worst is yet to come
I fear this dream is coming true, I need to tell someone

I dreamt the other night that famine spread across the land
The clouds, they held no water and the oceans turned to sand
People by the millions were gathered in the streets
Their voices had gone quiet, just the sound of marching feet

They labored forward blindly, not knowing where or why
Their purpose long forgotten, their eyes fixed on the sky
Amongst them walked a silent foe, it had no face or name
It cared not for your riches, for your power, or your fame

Its deadly touch would plant in you, disease to multiply
And spread to those around you as the herd emulsified
And in the sky, appeared to us its message clear and plain
"When I am done, this world, and you will never be the same"
Will never be the same
Will never be the same
