Silent Giant Lyrics

The silent giant stands alone
At the end of the earth
Silent in stone
No sins to rebirth
Falling away
The earth it has cracked
The angel's facade
The screaming land

A messiah born of flesh and tragedy
Hopelessness creeping through insanity
Oculus return to me in signals
Stigmatic didacts speak of hymns I

Used to know
So long ago
Now all that I was
Has eroded

I was a pauper for pleasure and lust
Born of the unforgiving sun
When light is cold and horrible
You learn to fight the ashes all away

Like something to which you pray
Suffer for me and the blame
Will all simply fade away
Death is the only conceit

The silent giant stands alone
Atop his distant windswept throne
He stares out at the sea
And waits for it to carry him home
The silent giant stands and waits
At the end of the earth, far from grace
Not a tear may fall from those eyes
Nothing more lives on inside

The silent giant stands alone
Atop his distant windswept throne
He stares out at the sea
And waits for it to carry him home
The silent giant stands and waits
At the end of the earth, far from grace
Not a tear may fall from those eyes
Nothing more lives on inside

The silent giant stands alone
At the end of the earth
Silent in stone
No sins to rebirth
Falling away
The earth it has cracked
The angel's facade
The screaming land

An ancient statue crumbles
Washed into the tides
An ancient sorrow falling
As the witness fades and dies
An unknowable sorrow
Unable to cry
A memory forgotten
Between sunset and sunrise

Look upon my works and despair
As my heart and soul sink into the sand
Look upon my works and despair
As my heart and soul sink into the sand

Eptir inn siðastr fugl er dauðr...
Hvem ar amæli?
I exist within an absence of presence...
