SOULFALLEN - Serenity\'s Throne lyrics

rate me

At the sundown of a civilization<br />

The night air moves with a dismal tone<br />

In the weakening grip of our infestation<br />

Serenity will reclaim it's throne<br />

<br />

Today the Sun was not born<br />

Held down by heavy clouds of rain<br />

No light for our last days<br />

Desires long washed away... <br />

<br />

I never saw the mountains moving<br />

For me the world was always still<br />

I was held down by the weight of the waters<br />

With heavy stones my heart was always sealed<br />

<br />

Tonight the Moon howled with scorn<br />

To a pack of wolves dressed as men<br />

In a flash the stars were reformed<br />

But as soon as I looked again<br />

<br />

(I saw...)<br />

What I saw was the end<br />

Yet all still looked the same<br />

No stigmas cast upon men<br />

No pits of brimstone or flame<br />

<br />

"Beholding the moors by twilight<br />

Serenity that never came<br />

I realized it was not carved for my name<br />

But neither were the pits of brimstone and flame"<br />

<br />

I never saw the mountains moving<br />

For me the world was always still<br />

I never held the keys within me<br />

The prophecies remained unfulfilled<br />

<br />

I never saw the Earth in it's grandeur<br />

I only saw it on it's knees<br />

I never saw a wholesome picture<br />

I only saw it torn piece by piece...
