    The Ancestor

    by: Invictus

    At first I open just one eye
    I feel that I'm groggy and I...
    Can hardly move
    Death is sitting next to me
    This red face of the woman that
    I love more than anything
    I can't manage to realize
    I fall out of the car and I...
    I throw up
    [Chorus]
    I gotta know
    I gotta ride
    If I am dead or still alive
    Beyond the night, beyond the crash
    I gotta know
    I gotta ride
    If I am dead or still alive
    Beyond the night, beyond the crash
    Beyond the other side
    I feel a presence inside me
    I can hear: "No, don't be afraid,
    I am the Ancestor
    At the crossroads of eternity
    I'm here to protect you because
    They have unfortunately died
    But you will not be alone
    Look for your guardian angel
    Believe".
