The Mission Lyrics by Queensryche

The Mission Lyrics

    In the wooden chair
    Beside my window
    I wear a face born in the falling rain
    I talk to shadows from a lonely candle
    Recite the phrases from the wall
    I can't explain this holy pain

    Six days ago my life had taken a tumble
    The orders came from high above they say
    A need to use me once again they've got my number
    Further the cause boy yes you know the game

    I'll wait here for days longer
    Till the sister comes to wash my sins away
    She is the lady that can ease my sorrow
    She brings the only friend
    That helps me find my way


    I search the past back to a time
    When i was younger
    A target for the new society
    Picked to displace the leaders
    Countering objectives
    Of this new underground reality

    Waiting for days longer
    'til sister comes to wash my sins away
    She is the lady that can ease my sorrow
    My love for her
    Will help me find my way

    My mission saved the world
    And i stood proud
    My mission changed the world
    It turned my life around

    I look around my room is filled with candles
    Each one a story but they end the same
    I'll hide away in here the law will never find me
    The walls will tell the story of my pain

    Waiting for days longer
    Till sister comes to wash my sins away
    She is the lady who can ease my sorrow
    She sets the pace for my delivery of pain

    They'll say my mission saved the world
    And i stood proud
    My mission changed the world
    The underground will rise and
    Save this world we'll all stand proud
    Our mission changed the world, we'll change the world
    We'll all stand proud
