On These Deserted Plains Lyrics

Breathless
Skinless
Wrought from Iron
Walking towards a tunnel of darkness
Light was my enemy
In search of what we cannot seem to find

Marvelous yet sinister
We held the fire
A fire to burn for eternity
Hindered by chains
And whipped by ice
We marched, we fell, into insanity

Calming aurora
A Glimmer of Peace
In death awaited, A fantasy
Shadows that claimed
Our souls and lives
The witnesses, will never be found

Haunted, distorted
Images we seek
Bleached bones
And skeletons
On these deserted plains
But despair we averted
The ground we claimed
Onward towards victory
From hell we came

The blank stare we faced
Burned within our minds
Immortality we sought
And it endeavored to pretend
But nothing could we find
Our lives flash before us
Amidst the darkest hours
Time seems to end

Haunted
Distorted
Bleach Bones
Skeletons
Hellish Screams
Uncertainty
Arcane terror

Left to die
For a cause
Inhuman cries
From below
Tainted lives
After life
Visionary

Facing our despair
We conquered this façade
Once bleak and lonely nights
Now filled with glorious light
For reward without the risk
Counts nothing towards your legacy
Amidst these dark ages
Time seems to end

Lifted above, a specter of observation
To observe what we create and destroy
And find what brings us to our destination
Like Gods of a system, to design and employ

Marvelous yet sinister
We held the fire
A fire to burn for eternity
Hindered by chains
And whipped by ice
We marched, we fell, into insanity

Haunted, distorted
Images we seek
Bleached bones
And skeletons
On these deserted plains
But despair we averted
The ground we claimed
Onward towards victory
From hell we came
