Lyrics

So you've come back boy, I knew you would

Destiny is calling you

Don't hesitate, boy, not for a moment

Chickens must come home to roost

Don't be afraid, boy, I'll be with you

I'll be right there holding your hand

Get what you came for, do what you must

It's all part of a master plan

It's useless to resist the pull

Go where destiny takes you

It's brought you home to end where you started

Back where your life began

Get what you came for, do what you must

The story's etched into your hand

Destiny writes the end

He has to bleed, he has to die

There is no escape

You may as well embrace your destiny

And maybe the part of me I despise

Will die with him

Maybe you'll die with him

If that's your destiny (Is it my destiny?)

You tell me
