it's only a matter of time
before we fall away
from far and beyond

theres not much left to say
a thirst for blood
is a thirst for fire

and with that fire comes a fear
of which we'll never know


so we stand
in the middle of a fight, not ours
to play the heroes of children, and the world (and the world!)

so when we stand, and when we fight
so we can make the weaker (all of them)
give praise and kiss their feet

to the ground

i've waited a million thoughts for this

and taken a dozen breaths in vain
but the observer knows the most
when it's you, who makes the oath!


here we stand (here we stand)
in the center of nothing

to play the kings of a nation on fire
so the backs can be turned


i've waited a million days for this
and taken a years blinks in vain
but it's i who knows the most

when it's you, who made the oath!
when it's you, who made the oath!
when it's you, who made the oath!


shapeshifters, and fragile gods
of a myth thats worn too long

365 blinks of a devastation thats been gone..
