Healer

My child, i had a visitation in my sleep last night

Something was calling to me from a blinding light

And told me not to fear it, hear it



It said, "it's time to make the world a little wiser.

There are enough destroyers and criticizers.

The world needs a healer, healer."



And i awoke, my heart was pounding

'cause it was not like me to have such dreams

But i could not fall asleep for wondering

Why the messenger had come to me



My child, i am too old and i am set in my ways

But now i realize just what the voice conveyed

You will be a healer, healer



Rejoice, rejoice, rejoice

Because the healer comes

The healer comes



Your destiny i lay before you

But then the choice was never yours nor mine

When it's time to take this burden on you

Then i will take the one you leave behind
