Utopya

(album: Empyrean - 2016)

We came through hate
Hellfire and war
(Viva Utopya)
In search of truth
Not metaphor
(Viva Utopya)
Pure hearts reign supreme
But dreams are only dreams

The bell is ringing

(Hey!)
This must be the place
Where all woes are erased
A fanfare for us as we arrived
(Tyrannicum!)
It feels like we've been blessed
The wistful dispossessed
We knew how lost
We were when we found paradise

We came in peace
But sadly saw
(Viva Utopya)
Perfection is
So cruelly flawed
(Viva Utopya)
In the cold light
The cracks are clear
(Viva Utopya)
This paradise
Becomes austere
(Viva Utopya!)

(Hey!)
This must be the place
Where myths disintegrate
They burnt your journals
And laughed at mine
(Tyrannicum!)
Imprisoned in white robes
The ghost of all our hopes
We count the cost of
Wasting trust on humankind

Pure hearts will still beat
But dreams aren't always sweet

There's nothing saintly here
In this oppressed frontier
At least my love
We know that we tried

The chants are getting loud
The creeping speed of sound
The mob appears
As I dry your eyes
(Tyrannicum!)
We face our destiny
Through strength of memory
The voyage will not end
If our twin spirits fly

(Viva Utopya)
