Bodies on the water
They feel the push and pull Bodies in the distance They feel the tumble Ringing through the clearing They feel the ebb and flow Ringing through the reason They feel the tidal wave Drowning in the struggle They feel the river's pull Drowning for the righteous They feel the tread's pull 02. Royal
Lift the golden gown
To the humble leaf Blow the pouring sound Through the horns with teeth Drape the hand around To the shaking neck Push the bodies through To the endless black Lift the golden gown To the humble leaf Blow the pouring sound Through the horns with teeth Drape the hand around To the shaking neck Push the bodies through To the endless black Breathe in, further Breathe in, further Breathe in, further Breathе in, until the end How long Parade of thе fallen words Blaze on Raise the call to arms Break them Crush the bones into us Straight in The bodies fall into the magnificence Lift the golden gown To the humble leaf Blow the pouring sound Through the horns with teeth Breathe in, further Breathe in, further Breathe in, further Breathe in, until the end How long Parade of the fallen words Blaze on Raise the call to arms Break them Crush the bones into us Straight in The bodies fall into the magnificence They'll march into the end Single file and wait for it Into the grave, they will come down They all marched on They topple Into the grave, they become the royal Royal, royal! Royal, royal! They'll march into the end (Royal!) Single file and wait for it (Royal!) Into the grave (Royal!) They will come down (Royal!) They took the hand And pulled them down They sink below They become the crown! Lift the golden gown To the humble leaf Blow the pouring sound Through the horns with teeth Drape the hand around To the shaking neck Push the bodies through To the endless black Royal! 03. Light The Witch
Dragged from the outside, dragged from the inside
You feel the clench They stand you up Pull (string you home) Pile on the outside, pile on the inside Stacked piece by piece They sculpt the mound Scream (burn them all) Wretched on the inside, wretched on the outside Swallow the fear They stand you up To reap (ride the shots) Blister on the inside, blister on the outside They watch the swell Gather around The embers Set them ablaze Shaking dark scene Set them ablaze Shaking dark scene Flames on the outside, flames on the inside You feel the clench They stood you up Pull (string you home) Burned on the outside, burned on the inside Burned piece by piece The mound comes down Scream (burn them all) Content on the inside, content on the outside Swallow the light They stand you up Scream (ride the shots) Blistered on the inside, blistered on the outside You feel the swell Gather around The flames Set them ablaze Shaking dark scene Set them ablaze Shaking dark scene We lay across the leaves On a bed of burning trees One breath stands in the way of now and after We lay across the leaves On a bed of burning trees Framed in the eyes of the other, they scream and scream They Scream! We lay across the leaves On a bed of burning trees Framed in the eyes of the other, they scream Set them ablaze Shaking dark scene See them in flames See them in flames 04. In Black

05. The Distance
Hiding, hiding
Red river beneath Two by two Reach for the seam Further, further They glide, unseen Higher, higher Raise the veil, the seam Breathe and lead the way they run Take the airway they fall Hiding, hiding Red river beneath Two by two Reach for the seam Further, further They glide, unseen Higher, higher Raise the veil, the seam They run, they run They fall, they run They fall Breathe and lead the way they run Take the airway they fall Breathe and lead the way they run Take the airway they fall They rise And they rise And they fall Into the edge of thought They sink below To the song of all That cease to grow To the edge of thought They need not know To light the earth And fear the glow To the edge of reason They sink below (Into the edge of thought) (They sink below) 06. Senescence
A rusted end
Exceeds its peak They reach up to The pale ceiling Come the creator Look him in the eye When we go Once more 'round the sun What we know Is a trough What we don't Is an ocean Play the stone Build the table Leave the walls Deceive for the unborn Feathers fall In the nest Leave the walls Deceive for the unborn Congregation Caress the soils Sworn to maintain Out of black, into the blue Feathers fly, from the nest 07. Wake The Silent
We fight fires, in favour
The fire speaks from us They must ever seek We fight fires, without Undeserved, speak the words They must ever seek Hiss the words so secretly They believe so dearly Shut the eyes, they will be cut To the bone through the flesh Wake the silent Bless the weakness Lеad them forward Take the silеnce Gazing into the unblessed Feed the years of less Light the hands of sin Hide the eyes of sight Gaze into the once forlorn Feed the years of less Light the hands of sin Hide the eyes of sight Gaze into the once forlorn Hiss the words so secretly They believe so dearly Shut the eyes, they will be cut To the bone through the flesh Wake the silent Bless the weakness Lead them forward Take the silence Gazing into the unblessed Feed the years of less Light the hands of sin Hide the eyes of sight Gaze into the once forlorn Feed the years of less Light the hands of sin Hide the eyes of sight Gaze into the once forlorn The words of sympathy As they stare so sweetly As one falls, they all will follow The words of sympathy As they stare so sweetly As one falls, they all will follow Wake, wake, wake, wake, wake, wake, wake The silent! 08. Golden
They weigh them down with the thickest of hides
They weigh them down with the sharpest of arrows They weigh them down through panting lies They weigh them down in the shade of night They weigh them down! They weigh them down as the carcass lies They weigh them down as the vultures gather They weigh them down, the test remains They weigh them down in the shade of might They weigh them down! The rain came down, so golden Coat of arms to bind them To the arrival of virtue The waves like stars, so golden They weigh them down through the thickest of hides They weigh them down with the sharpest of arrows They weigh them down through panting lies They weigh them down in the shade of night The rain came down, so golden Coat of arms to bind them To the arrival of virtue The waves like stars, so golden They set them in stone (They set them in stone) They set them in stone They set them in stone (They set them in stone) They set them in stone They hide the hunted They hide the hunted Seek the lion hearts Seek the hearts, and come out The rain came down, so golden Coat of arms to bind them To the arrival of virtue The waves like stars, so golden 09.

10. Departure
Raise the hand in defiance
The eyes have fallen The head in silence The hive is burning So praise the departed The white is calling So praise the departed The haze is coming Burn the reef in solemn silence Hang the cloth in solemn shame Slit the right, the haze is coming In the eyes of wolves, departurе's calling No gods! No masters! In the eyes of Satan! Raised by the wolves, the departed they call Raised by the wolves, the departed they praise The hand in defiance The eyes have fallen The head in silence The hive is burning So praise the departed The white is calling So praise the departed The haze is coming 'Til the circle is complete They were walking on deceit As they reach far beneath Gather 'round, they cease to be 'Til in the circle is complete They were staring at defeat Hold the night, start to face From the earth they fall from grace Raise the hand in defiance The eyes have fallen The head in silence The hive is burning So praise the departed The white is calling So praise the departed The haze is coming As the fear cease to be It's time to look out from the sky |
