miserabile visu {ex malo bonum}

A red priest broke into our classroom
 Caught us children by attention
 "Listen closely to the words I speak
 Lord knows if we'll ever ever again meet"
 Spoke such words never spoken before
 On the way he declared a war
 Miracles like you've never seen
 From a man who was raised up in the sea
 A man is coming in thirteen-one
 To charm the daughters and the sons
 Scared for our lives, I turned to your hands
 Hold this tight while we run, if we still can
 What disasters may come, whatever it may be
 At the end of the age, it will land you and me
 What tragedy may bring, whatever may fall
 At the end of the world, you still belong
 Before the red priest took his last breath
 He told me, "Child, now don't forget
 The sun will turn dark very soon
 And the days are numbered when there's blood on the moon
 The earth will shake and the sky will fall
 The eyes will open of those involved
 Don't take this son, but you'll be killed
 By the man from seven hills"
 A man is coming in thirteen-one
 To charm the daughters and the sons
 Scared for our lives, I turned to your hand
 Hold this tight while we run, if we still can
 What disasters may come, whatever it may be
 At the end of the age, it will land you and me
 What tragedy may bring, whenever it may fall
 At the end of the world, you still belong
 Look children to the eastern sky when you hear the voice say your last goodbyes
 Look there to the eastern skies when the ghosts take hold of the men who died
 Look children to the eastern sky when your fathers weep, and your mothers cry
 Look children to the eastern sky
 What disasters may come, whatever it may be
 At the end of the age, it will land you and me
 What tragedy may bring, whatever may fall
 At the end of the world, you still belong
 Look children to the eastern sky when you hear the voice say your last goodbyes
 Look there to the eastern skies when the ghosts take hold of the men who died
 Look children to the eastern sky when your fathers weep, and your mothers cry
 Look children to the eastern sky
 Look children to the eastern sky
