"Veritas" lyrics - KAMELOT

In the mirror
My reflection
Lies to me
That is not the man I want to see!

But every harvest
Takes me closer to my aim
I will be there
As soon as darkness falls

My life is but a heartbeat away
And all you ever had will soon belong to me

[Chorus:]
(In morte ultima veritas)
You will kneel before me
And you will confess that I am god!
(Vincit veritas in omni re)
Send me your prayers
But death is the answer to life

While your wailings
Feed my anger
I stay calm
'Cause I'm sure that you won't let me down

Fading gently
To the sound I can't forget
And don't you know
That when the music dies?

My life is but a heartbeat away
And all you ever had will soon belong to me

[Chorus:]
(In morte ultima veritas)
You will kneel before me
And you will confess that I am god!
(Vincit veritas in omni re)
Send me your prayers
But death is the answer to life

[Bridge: Elize Ryd]
My life's so short but innocent
It always will remain
And all I know is
It was good
My childhood memories
And I was blessed to live

[Folk instrumental break]

Please, please let it die
Oh brother this is my last goodbye
I'm begging you!

[Chorus:]
(In morte ultima veritas)
You will kneel before me
And you will confess that I am god!
(Vincit veritas in omni re)
Send me your prayers
But death is the answer to life
