I feel like I am on another planet

 The hunter is on the prowl he's got his eyes on me

 Silent I tread because he's tracking me down

 Awake in my bed I know he's sneaking around

 I see culture disappear before me

 A gathering of the few who will be torn apart

 Foolish the heart that will succumb just to last

 Broken the dream when all this does come to pass

 The jackal is king down here

 Although he's the great pretender

 The jackal will smile and leer

 A message of bad news

 He is the bringer (repeat)

 A new change has been swept abroad

 A new face for us all

 My questions shall be ignored

 And too soon will we fall

 I hear someone talk that does confound me

 On carrion he will feed

 Strip clean your warm desire

 Dreadful the sight to witness carnage revealed

 Hungry the jaws that once lay darkly concealed

 The jackal is king down here

 Although he's the great pretender

 The jackal will smile and leer

 A message of bad news

 He is the bringer (repeat)
