This is another melodic piano ballad. It is about a charismatic leader who may or may not be legit. Ultimately, it only matters what the believers think anyway and what the believers take away. I'm not sure how much thought I really put into writing this lyric though. I may have just gone where the words led me on this one.

August is gone and the autumn is near.
Soon I will leave all of you and move on.
Soon I will be where you can not go.
I'll think of you when you're dreaming.

If you try hard then you can follow me.
And go to places that most never see.
If you can see past this great mirage,
try and believe that you feel me still.

Though you may sometimes lose faith in my words,
hold them until I return and reveal
all of the secrets that I conceal,
mysteries revealed only when I say.
