"We were the rider and we were the hearse |
|
We were the salvation and we were the curse" |
|
We were the shadows |
|
Hiding from the breaking day |
|
And we were the flames |
|
That once burned entire worlds away |
|
Upon our broken dreams, we lay our heads |
|
And fall into a slumber deep, with dreams as hard as lead |
|
Tired of the tyrants, drained of tears to weep |
|
We hope the sun will never wake us |
|
As mankind slowly falls asleep |
|
We were the wind |
|
Caressing the Towers of Silence |
|
And we were the storm |
|
That once raged upon the welkin |
|
We were the rain |
|
Falling heavy upon the hearts of men |
|
And we were the clouds |
|
That usurped the warmth of the sun, again and again |
|
Upon our broken dreams, we lay our heads |
|
And fall into a slumber deep, we dream among the dead |
|
Tired of this broken soil, the dark beneath our feet |
|
We pray the sun will never wake us |
|
As life itself falls asleep |
|
We are the sand in the hourglass |
|
Rushing towards our destined end |
|
We are the sand of the ever-growing desert |
|
Towards our world descends |
|
We are the sand |
|
We are the storm |
|
We are the wind |
|
Of a world outworn |
|
We are the sand |
|
We are the storm |
|
We are the wind |
|
Never to be reborn |
