Fates Warning

Why is it some of us are destined to stay alive

and some of us are here just so that we'll die

how come the bullet hits the other guy

do we have to try and reason why

R: Be it the devil or be it him

you can count on just one thing

when the time is up you'll know

not just one power runs the show

Are we the lucky ones saved for another day

or they the lucky ones who are taken away

is it a hand on your shoulder from the lord above

or the devil himself come to give you a shove

R:

A volcano erupts and sweeps a town away

a hurricane devastates the cities in its way

the grief and misery for the ones that are left behind

the worst is yet to come a hell to face mankind
