SOULFALLEN - Towers Of Silence lyrics
rate meWhy does this morning feel different from all the others<br />
The Hand that once gave life has begun to smother<br />
From my within my lungs the air has been released<br />
And I cannot feel the chill in the morning breeze<br />
<br />
Yet I am at ease... <br />
<br />
For me there is no warmth left even in the Sun<br />
Safe from the earth this crest will be undone<br />
Naked and alone, upon an altar made of stone<br />
I fear has become final throne<br />
<br />
Upon the third circle on the first day<br />
Where nothing moves but the daevas in the wind<br />
The wind bears a silent calling to mountains far away<br />
Summoning the birds of prey<br />
<br />
"On the second day the vultures came<br />
The beasts of birds, the sentinels of decay<br />
Deeper each day they tore into my flesh<br />
Feasting upon my loins and the insides through my chest<br />
For days it lasted until they ran out of meat<br />
Leaving behind only bones for the Sun to bleach"<br />
<br />
Upon this silent altar, upon my dreamless bed<br />
Leaving the world bereft and the vultures fed<br />
Slowly all will be gone that has ever signed to me<br />
As the remains quietly wash into the sea...
