Shadows Of History
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
A dark sky, a dark need
Everything is ash, everywhere is burned
A world destroyed by sheer greed
We never asked, I never learned
Another cold front rolls in
I'm impaled by the ice and snow
How could we let this happen
Don’t pretend you didn’t know
We can’t escape from here now
Let's face what we made
Or succumb to our doubts
And sing to our graves
We can't run away now
Going down with the ship
Can we call ourselves proud
Without consequence
Waves rolling off the rock
Shadows of history
Echos behind the lock
No longer mystery
A dark deal, a dark dance
Crossing lines with twisted words
They dismiss all rights and stance
Letting voices go unheard
Led by leaders with no mind
A life sentence is our debt
Only care for their own kind
Fell right into the trap they set
We can’t escape from here now
Let's face what we made
Or succumb to our doubts
And sing to our graves
We can't run away now
Going down with the ship
Can we call ourselves proud
Without consequence
Waves rolling off the rock
Shadows of history
Echos behind the lock
No longer mystery
Were all just raindrops in the flood
And after all that we put her through
The shirking blame of the overlord
Now tell me what are you gonna do
Stoking the might of our infernal grave
Soon you will find you can not be saved
Waves rolling off the rock
Shadows of history
Echos behind the lock
No longer mystery
Waves rolling off the rock
Shadows of history
Echos behind the lock
No longer mystery
