The Last Revival

There is silence in the air
broken by a solitary sound
heard and perceived by all 
but understood by a few
.......... can you feel it?

It's on a solitary frequency
blows on a solitary wave
woven on a solitary note
heard at a certain modulation
.......... can you perceive it?

Harmonious, yet so threatening
gentle, yet so powerful
full of mercy, yet so overflowing with wrath
so little is known of it, but so much perceived
.......... can you discern it?

Understand the words that i speak
perceive the meaning of what i see
there is no way you can ignore it 
you'll answer to the questions that follow
and face the consequences of failing to comprehend
the hunger and thirst for the last revival.
