somewhere in the darkest night a stranger has lost the way

cold wind and a distant light has carried his heart away

some say he was one of us, a prodigal gone astray

but inside he's as cold as ice to the truth that he won't obey

he won't discern - the point of no return



CHORUS

in the last daze - the final haze

there was strong delusion to believe a lie

in the last daze before the blaze

they couldn't see beyond their misty trance

to grab the truth and have a fighting chance

in the last daze



cold chills when the Spirit speaks that some shall depart from the faith

all ends in calamity just when they thought it was safe

they followed the lies - the fables men devised



Chorus



some say it's a certainty, a sign of the times I am told

but I weep for the souls of those who will never return to the fold



Chorus
