Lyrics:

What unknown face now breaks the silence?
What tipping force disturbs the balance?
Swift and sober comes a voice
Offering a bitter choice
Take up a crime and serve the sentence
Offer up a final penance
Dismantle colossus from deep inside
Conspirators and those allied
(Gifts of bronze) Iron, obsidian, from nave to chop
Plunged and hidden deep in the chests of those who cry
The songs of gods untrue
(The glowing eyes that burn like ember, fall painful on the skin
Seething with hatred and writhing in pain, they cast a ghastly grin)

Sulfur set to fire, a blue flame is born
To rip through homes and cleanse the town
A new world rendered, an old world mourned
It draws closer with every step
(Push off with both feet
Fall into the chasm which will consume all)
March not to the drum, but off the beat
(Push off with both feet
Fall into the chasm which will consume all)
Burst into the evening, cool air burns the lungs, whoa
Fear not the turning of heads, the darting of glances, the lashing of tongues
Turning heads, the darting glances, the lashing tongues
Glowing eyes that burn like ember
Fall painful on the skin
Glowing eyes fall painful on the skin

Those glowing eyes burn like ember, fall painful on the skin
(Seething with hatred, they cast a ghastly grin)
But among those faces shrouded in horror, one truth prevails
(All who've ever come this far exclusively have failed)
Reach for the hand whose grasp is firm
Whose blistered palms can confirm
A kinship in a spiteful place
With tender touch, a warm embrace
Though nights turn long and cold (nights turn long and cold)
And the warmth of the day escapes (warmth of the day escapes)
Those long dark shadows growing old form familiar shapes
