Hourglass Lyrics

An honest shepherd deluded to believe
Deprived of his sheep by a church which deceives
Justice in the hands of impostors and thieves
Praying can't give a victim relief

Nightfall of the world, enthralled by cruelty
We're all prisoners, as darkness falls

The sundial is in shades, the hourglass is running out
Only a trifle of sand is left, until our eyes have lost their tears

The last chivalrous knight is dead
Impure bastards will take their place
A mere shadow of pagan blood
Securing possession of a world else condemned
The river springs from a primary rock
Bringing solid metal to the ocean below
Creeks flooded by polluted dirt
The native source drained, never to be refilled

The sundial is in shades, the hourglass is running out
All kindness forgotten, harmony has turned to chaos

Soon we are down, we are down, we are down, we are down
We are doomed
