In The Here And The Everafter

Will you miss the sea when it's gone from your eyes?

Will you hear her silent calling?

Will you come to know that utopia lies,

And the spires of old are falling?

There is madness here and it's bound to get worse

With every hour

Things we all hold dear will go down the same course

From sweet to sour

So speak to me now of the power you hold

Over creatures of hollow laughter

And nail down my hands on a cross of deceit

In the here and the everafter

Will you hide the sun in a cloud of your own

Twisted desires?

As the rain dissolves all the truths we had known,

So end our empires

Let them nail you down on a cross of deceit

By your own choices.

Let them make your crown be a crown of defeit

And mute your voices

So speak to me now of the power you hold

Over creatures of hollow laughter

And nail down my hands on a cross of deceit

In the here and the everafter.
