The Flood

[Verse]
A scourge outside the ancient laws
Is a worthless endeavour to embark on
If truly desperate measures are needed here
Then we must choose to see the awful truth
What’s sacred to you, won’t bring us forward
We must protect our legacy to outlive us all
So that these walls may stand the test of time
The transient nature of life makes it worthwhile

[Reprise]
Distrust within
It’s the reason we gather
In thesе courts made of stone
I left for my own sakе
Tonight I’m dancing through
The skies upon the dunes

Turn me down and watch me conjure a storm
Waters are flooding your home
You forced my hand
To make the call
Reset the scales tonight

[Outro]
So hold my hand
When suddenly everything dies
It’s time for me to close my eyes
