11. A Death (12:57)
Staring out at a loving populace
Watching as the earth decays into mist
The cheers, meaning well, turn to mockery and pain
And always the laughter remains
I need to keep up illusions
Keep the walls together once again
Apathy and desolation, burning away
My dreams are cold and grey
Watching from the other side
Waiting for the death of light
At night, the only time that I find peace
Let me be, just let me leave
They love me, can't you see?
The devil in the arms of christ
The only thing left now
Is to remove the blackened sky
It never washes off
It never goes away
It always stays the same
Let the cycle never break
Let it never change
Let the cycle never break
The laughter still remains
Let the cycle never break
Watching from the other side
Waiting for the death of light
At night, the only time that I find peace
Let me be, just let me leave
They love me, can't you see?
The devil in the arms of christ
The only thing left now
Is to remove the blackened sky
The death of light
The depths of blackest night
Remove the grey eyesight
The firing line decaying faster
Than the rest of my failing corpse
I am just another one
This is just another form
Another name for blackness is light
One in the same
Let the cycle never break
One in the same
Let it just remain
And always the laughter
And always the laughter
And always the laughter
He died in my place
Life and death in the shadow of the mountain
Life and death in the shadow of the mountain
Life and death in the shadow of the mountain
Life and death in the shadow of the mountain
Let it stay the same, let it never change
Let the cycle never break
Let it stay the same, let it never change
Let the cycle never break
This city it becomes you
This skyline it consumes you
You will never be one of us
Let the circle never break
You are just another one
You are just another one
You are just another one
They will not remember you
You are just another one
You are just another one
You are just another one
They will not remember you
The king of the dead
The kingdom of the dying
The ghost of resistance
Death and oblivion
I can help you shed your skin of sorrow
I can mend the bones you broke wandering here
I can carry you before the conquering sun
I can kill you with me there
They fall asleep
To the sound of empty vessels
Crying out for warmth
In a world in which it has died
They fall asleep
To the sound of empty vessels
Crying out for warmth
In a world in which it has died
Watching as the earth decays into mist
The cheers, meaning well, turn to mockery and pain
And always the laughter remains
I need to keep up illusions
Keep the walls together once again
Apathy and desolation, burning away
My dreams are cold and grey
Watching from the other side
Waiting for the death of light
At night, the only time that I find peace
Let me be, just let me leave
They love me, can't you see?
The devil in the arms of christ
The only thing left now
Is to remove the blackened sky
It never washes off
It never goes away
It always stays the same
Let the cycle never break
Let it never change
Let the cycle never break
The laughter still remains
Let the cycle never break
Watching from the other side
Waiting for the death of light
At night, the only time that I find peace
Let me be, just let me leave
They love me, can't you see?
The devil in the arms of christ
The only thing left now
Is to remove the blackened sky
The death of light
The depths of blackest night
Remove the grey eyesight
The firing line decaying faster
Than the rest of my failing corpse
I am just another one
This is just another form
Another name for blackness is light
One in the same
Let the cycle never break
One in the same
Let it just remain
And always the laughter
And always the laughter
And always the laughter
He died in my place
Life and death in the shadow of the mountain
Life and death in the shadow of the mountain
Life and death in the shadow of the mountain
Life and death in the shadow of the mountain
Let it stay the same, let it never change
Let the cycle never break
Let it stay the same, let it never change
Let the cycle never break
This city it becomes you
This skyline it consumes you
You will never be one of us
Let the circle never break
You are just another one
You are just another one
You are just another one
They will not remember you
You are just another one
You are just another one
You are just another one
They will not remember you
The king of the dead
The kingdom of the dying
The ghost of resistance
Death and oblivion
I can help you shed your skin of sorrow
I can mend the bones you broke wandering here
I can carry you before the conquering sun
I can kill you with me there
They fall asleep
To the sound of empty vessels
Crying out for warmth
In a world in which it has died
They fall asleep
To the sound of empty vessels
Crying out for warmth
In a world in which it has died
