Cold Dead Lands Lyrics

Is this the way we saw the world
Back when we dared to dream?
Distorted views held by the ones
With means to destroy
Upon arrival, things become
Almost clear as day
So many days have come and gone
They're burned in our minds

But now when we open our eyes
The view is so empty
Punishment now rains down from dark skies
And covers the earth
Fear, the fear spreads so quickly
It seizes the unsuspecting mind
The limbs will soon follow
Yes, we're all paralyzed

Came to in the dim light
Cold rain burns my skin
I don't feel right, like a part of me has disappeared
I'm trying to make sense of what I see
And to come to terms with what I face
This desolate plain before me

I see the world and it's cold and dead
The fires that did rage, those flames don't burn
The battle we staged, took a fatal turn
So now what we have before us are Cold Dead Lands
I see the world and it's cold and dead
The longer we stayed, the faster she died
Ignoring all the signs, brought our demise
