1.
Through the sky, Silver boned wings. To the west, Eyes glimmer Here I'll build my throne, We can't all wear the crown. Dreams of a gilded tomb, Lull me to my slumber.
2.
She of Golden Blood She of Silver Bone She who's buried here Her body means our throne Let me be, let me sleep I'll return to my home She of Golden Blood She of Silver Bone An unnatural thing Her grave godless Could it be, is there one I could lead to my home? Drop your shovels boys, leave this hallowed ground Gold is yours to go Come with me, oh kind one Your reward will follow
3.
Seismic 05:46
Leave a scar in the earth Crack, crumble Death Rattle Flood brings a sea, scar disappears A path ends, old world is drowning Collapse and then flood in You cleanse us when you drive Your hands into the earth Destruction brings new life We are open We are free Backs to the flood, we walk on
4.
Our roots below, our leaves above We ageless ones will grant reward Your life will end, for life unending But is our gift a poison to you? No roots below, no leaves above You walk with me, not bound to earth You walked with me, but I cannot follow Your kindness back at the headstone has revealed my secret I promised you your reward And now you spit into my face You walk with me, not bound to earth You walked with me, but I cannot follow
5.
Black swan flies south On wings of avarice Best to follow Leave her wooden dreams Motionless is death Glimmer is life Long for a Grave Dreamless Not a life insane Lost, she wanders alone Forever under the swirling skies Everything is gone Centuries pass in the blink of an eye Perpetual loneliness Falling deeper into the void Dreams of whispering empire Have been completely destroyed Never to feel a comforting touch Never to hear another kind word Condemned to this endless night Sentenced to never again be heard Gone from me, no return Your arms seek wealth but will find death Long for a Grave Dreamless Not a life insane
6.
The Sun slips through the leaves No marker here for you I feel your bones beneath my roots Then I rise and walk away Those who came after cut us down The Ancient Ones no longer live And I can only walk for so long Before the black wings block out the sun And I can only walk for so long Before the black wings block out the sun
