"The Reckoning" lyrics

"The Reckoning"

Out in the woods, under the stars
Four legged creatures gathering up
As the midnight hour nears
All past fears disappear

The time has come to pay the price
For the cruelty that's been going on for years
The hunt will take a new turn
Because now the rules have changed

'Nature is evil', Mister Herzog said
And I think he might be right... and wrong
'Cause everything would be in balance
If it wasn't for humankind

Your kingdom falls
Right before your eyes
There's no turning back
Your kingdom falls
Right before your eyes
And we can't go back

Hunters hunted back, there's new prey on the track
Hunters getting attacked, and their bullets bouncing back

Out in the woods, under the moon
Shining eyes... they will attack soon
As the midnight hour's here
It's time for retaliation

The time has come to pay the price
For the cruelty that's been going on for years
The hunt will take a new turn
Because now the rules have changed

Your kingdom falls
Right before your eyes
There's no turning back
Your kingdom falls
Right before your eyes
And we can't go back

I surrender as a human
Apologies not accepted
