   Prophecy lyrics   [Schaffer] 
 
I can see clearly now, a painful vision indeed 
An attack on hallowed ground, from high above 
Alien to us, the species known as man 
A serious threat, in the eyes of the Elder 
 
So heed my warning, before our own existence falls near extinct 
Our culture is lost in ancient mystery, covered in the sands of time 
 
A sacred few survive the massacre this night 
In secret they will meet a new society 
 
Ten thousand years from now, a child will be born 
I've seen the vision, the writing on the wall 
He'll walk the Earth, two thousand years or more 
Paving the way, for mankind's fall 
 
So there is hope you see, but we must act with great speed 
Assemble the chosen, the ones to lead, and morph them in the likeness of man 
 
Oppressed for centuries, await the prophecy 
The child will set us free, reclaim it rightfully 
 
We'll take their identity and live among them free 
All the while, plotting events that mold their history 
We'll build the perfect beast with the knowledge that they seek 
If it takes ten thousand years, we never will retreat 
 
Assassins we will be, through human history 
Jesus Christ to Kennedy, the Domino Decree 
Disciples of the Watch, prepare the coming curse 
If it takes ten thousand years, we never will retreat 
 
And so, our world is doomed, we'll lay claim again some day 
There is hope, in the birth of one, so many centuries away
