Pentagram
Close the Casket

[Verse 1]
These times try hard to drag me down
But where I've been, I've learned to abound
Well, if I fall, that's not all
For the love above has answered my call, yeah

[Verse 2]
My body shows age beyond its years
And underneath these scars are a billion tears
Through the eye of a needle that I've passed through
By the love above that never withdrew

[Chorus]
The black passed away, now my night is day
I close the casket on the old man's ways
And now I see through the eyes that were blind
And close the casket as the old man dies, yeah

[Bridge]
Been so far and been so near
High as the sun and dead to fear
But glitter ain't gold in every dream
And the choice you make breathes eternally

[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Black passed away, now my night is day
I close the casket on the old man's ways
And now I see through the eyes that were blind
And close the casket as the old man dies
