Death From Above

We alone, sea-breakers, by desolate streams
World-forsakers, forever it seems
Built the world’s great cities
Trampled kingdoms down
With a new song’s magic conquered each and every crown

Was it that one man’s soul
Cursed and broken
With that one light shining
That does not depart
With that one word out
One last spoken
Brought heaven-wrought flame
In another man’s heart

There’s only treason now
Death from above
There is no reason why
Death from above
There’s only treason now
Death from above
There is no reason why
Death from above

We crush them all with black prophesying
For each generation is a dream that is dying
And the Sun’s so high
Scorning hope of the morning
No future nigh
Goes the warning

Was that one man’s soul
Cursed and broken
With that one light shining
That does not depart
With that one word out
One last spoken
Brought heaven-wrought flame
In another man’s heart

There’s only treason now
Death from above
There is no reason why
Death from above
There’s only treason now
Death from above
There is no reason why
Death from above

There’s only treason now
Death from above
There is no reason why
Death from above
There is no reason why
Death from above
There is only treason now
Death from above

Was it that one man’s soul
Cursed and broken
With that one light shining
That does not depart
With that one word out
One last spoken
Brought heaven-wrought flame
In another man’s heart
Was it that one man’s soul
Cursed and broken
With that one light shining
That does not depart
With that one word out
One last spoken
Brought heaven-wrought flame
In another man’s heart

There’s only treason now
Death from above
There is no reason why
Death from above
There’s only treason now
Death from above
There is no reason why
Death from above

There’s only treason now
Death from above
There is no reason why
Death from above
There is only treason now
Death from above
There is no reason why
Death from above
