I dreamed I saw St. Augustine,
Alive as you or me.

Tearing through these quarters,
In the utmost misery.
With a blanket underneath his arm,
And a coat of solid gold.
Searching for the very souls,
Whom already have been sold.

"Arise, arise", he cried so loud,
With a voice without restraint.

"Come out ye gifted kings and queens,
And hear my sad complaint.
No martyr is among ye now,
         A  
Whom you can call your own.
So go on your way accordingly,
But know you're not alone".

:: INSTRUMENTAL 1 ::

I dreamed I saw St. Augustine,
Alive with fiery breath.

And I dreamed I was amongst the ones,
That put him out to death.
Oh, I awoke in anger,
So alone and terrified.
I put my fingers against the glass,
And bowed my head and cried.
