Lyrics

What unknown face now breaks the silence?
What tipping force disturbs the balance?
Swift and sober, comes a voice, offering a bitter choice
Take up a crime and serve the sentence, offer up a final penance
Dismantle colossus from deep inside, conspirators
And those allied
(Gifts of bronze) Iron, obsidian, from nave to chop
Plunged and hidden
Deep in the chests of those who cry, the songs of gods untrue
The glowing eyes that burn like embers, fall painful on the skin
Seething with hatred, and writhing in pain, they cast a ghastly grin
Sulfur set to fire, blue flame is born
To rip through homes and cleanse the town
A new world rendered, an old world mourned
The old world left to drown
It draws closer with every step
Push off with both feet
Fall into the chasm, which will consume all
March not to the drum, but off the beat
Push off with both feet
Fall into the chasm, which will consume all
Burst into the evening, cool air burns the lungs, whoa
Fear not the turning of heads, the darting of glances, the lashing of tongues
Turning heads, the darting glances, the lashing tongues
Glowing eyes that burn like ember
Fall painful on the skin
Glowing eyes fall painful on the skin
Those glowing eyes burn like ember fall painful on the skin
Seething with hatred they cast a ghastly grin
But among the faces shrouded in horror, one truth prevails
All who’ve ever come this far exclusively have failed
Reach for the hand whose grasp is firm
Whose blistered palms can confirm
A kinship in a spiteful place
With tender touch a warm embrace
Though nights turn long and cold
And the warmth of the day escapes
The long dark shadows growing old
Form familiar shapes
