Citadels

Stand to dig the graves of lovers
To steal the wind from their sails
Bury the corpse

Fill this cavern with the screaming of the damned
The whisper of gods in her eyes
Conquer the soul

The fire burned so bright
But light has left their eyes

Our children brave a world of woe alone
They’re braving the tempest to still our trembling hands
Broken bones, consumed by the fire never ending
For our children trapped in stone
We will devastate the throne

Setting the fire
Burning the garden
Writhing with death
Growing so tall
All hearts have been awakened
Raise up the dead
Welcome them home

All we love, we have thrown to the jaws of a tragic consequence
Stole their lives just like the animals we have become
We were so naive, to take the dream behind their eyes
And give them back as cursed memories
To the wolves, we’ve cast them in the burial of love and misery
