I feel like I am on another planet
The hunter is on the prowl he's got his eyes on me
Silent I tread because he's tracking me down
Awake in my bed I know he's sneaking around

I see culture disappear before me
A gathering of the few who will be torn apart
Foolish the heart that will succumb just to last
Broken the dream when all this does come to pass
The jackal is king down here
Although he's the great pretender
The jackal will smile and leer
A message of bad news
He is the bringer (repeat)
A new change has been swept abroad
A new face for us all
My questions shall be ignored
And too soon will we fall
I hear someone talk that does confound me
On carrion he will feed
Strip clean your warm desire
Dreadful the sight to witness carnage revealed
Hungry the jaws that once lay darkly concealed
The jackal is king down here
Although he's the great pretender
The jackal will smile and leer
A message of bad news
He is the bringer (repeat)
