Hourglass
(专辑: Ashes Of The Wake - 2004)
Privileged, a
chosen few Blessed with our time in hell Witness a
divine vision, the
day we all fell still. Rapture of the
dying age, a
shattered hourglass Wrath of the
warring gods and so this too shall pass. It's only getting worse, not worth a
moment's regret Each dawn another curse, every breath a
twisting blade What will be left behind in the
ashes of the
wake? An ill wind blows this way, the
edge of the
envelope burns Forbearance and my vengeance, payment for your intent Fear and death in the
wings, in thrall of those fallen from grace Petty is as petty does, witness the
mass disgrace. God forbid you read the
signs, watch for meanings between the
lines Gehenna has now arrived, no hindsight for the
blind. Your trust has been misplaced, believed the
lies told to your face Became another casualty and now it's too late. You finally made it home, draped in the
flag that you fell for. And so it goes The
ashes of the
wake. It's only getting worse...
