lyrics
There’s a fury in the breeze
A whisper of pain
There’s a heaviness in the sky
A heaviness in my mind
There’s an exile of the soul
From an ancient structure
carved out of old earth
Like a statues
Immortal glance
At mortal worship
Consuming the patina of permanence
The rotting bread of cannibals
Who invent stories
Written in dreams
To wash away their blood
In the purging stream
Of time
And the kingdom thrives..
But in the surrounding wastelands
Poisoned
Withered neglect gives birth to savage flames
With a fiercer insatiable lust
A dragon is at the gate
Wind and fire
Joy and sorrow
Illusions gossamer hollow
Manifest like rainbows
Through complexity
Reflecting, refracting, dispersing
Falling upon empty
A statue breaks
Decays
And turns to dust
The king here lies
A hundred-billion grains
Scattering In the breeze
A whisper of pain
There’s a heaviness in the sky
A heaviness in my mind
There’s an exile of the soul
From an ancient structure
carved out of old earth
Like a statues
Immortal glance
At mortal worship
Consuming the patina of permanence
The rotting bread of cannibals
Who invent stories
Written in dreams
To wash away their blood
In the purging stream
Of time
And the kingdom thrives..
But in the surrounding wastelands
Poisoned
Withered neglect gives birth to savage flames
With a fiercer insatiable lust
A dragon is at the gate
Wind and fire
Joy and sorrow
Illusions gossamer hollow
Manifest like rainbows
Through complexity
Reflecting, refracting, dispersing
Falling upon empty
A statue breaks
Decays
And turns to dust
The king here lies
A hundred-billion grains
Scattering In the breeze
