Black Sabbath - I Witness Lyrics

Artist: Black Sabbath

Album: Cross Purposes

  • Songwriters: Terence Michael Butler, Anthony Philip Harford, Anthony Iommi

Across the desert of the burning dark
A darkness which illuminates you
There's a place, you've always wanted to be
Whose pleasures always did escape you

It's always been so out of reach
Nothing so near ever felt so far
And now it's here within your grasp
A never ending burning says it all

As you drive into the darkness
In front the future behind you history, oh
Caught alone in the dark night
Do you think that's the way it's supposed to be?
You don't believe your eyes 'cos all they see is lies, oh yeah

You better run from the holy man
The eyes that will are set upon you
Listen not to verse and prayer
Song that thrill and voices tempt you

The inner flame has fear of death
Never has light ever seemed so dark
Pilgrims of Sabbocracy
Hear the hounds of Heaven as they bark

As you drive into the darkness
In front the future behind you history, oh
Caught alone in the dark night
Do you think that's the way it's supposed to be?
You don't believe your eyes 'cos all they see is lies

I witness a time and a place that never dies
Still frozen in time
This darkness the only place that I can hide
I witness a dream

As you drive into the darkness
In front the future behind you history
Caught alone in the dark night
Do you think that's the way it's supposed to be?
You don't believe your eyes and all they see is lies

I witness a time and a place that never dies
Still frozen in time
This darkness the only place that I can hide
I witness a dream

I witness a time and a place that never dies
Still frozen in time
This darkness the only place that I can hide
I witness a dream
Oh, just a dream
