Chimes At Midnight
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.
I saw the mountain crumble down
I saw colossus in flames.
I heard the ocean draining
Nothing that I could ever tame.
Off with my head, come down the line
I have the right to decide.
I'll bring this light, as is the sky
Altered minds they criticize.
Unrest within your flesh
How can we stop this pollution?
Altering trouble, you cannot fix
Envy of others never makes me rich.
All my heroes, they're all dead
I remain here inside my
We have heard the chimes at midnight.
Into the void I go.
Will I ever see your face again
Or will blank be all I know
Arriving inside
Ire hurts a life.
And the darkness here is grim
But it found us, surrounded.
Lead me deep into the canyon
You push your guidance in the wrong hands.
Feet ungrounded, giving your best
Now take your gold into silence.
You take a stand, bracing yourself
For this cold is never ending.
We have heard the chimes at midnight.
Into the void I go.
Will I ever see your face again
Or will blank be all I know
Arriving inside
Ire hurts a life.
