The Ruins Lyrics
So this how it ends
Before it even starts
Apprehended by monstrous forms
Skin like feathers caked in mud
Nebulous speech outstretched arms
Protruding veins dripping blood
Sail across the blackened sea
To the village of the living things
Hollow eyes transfixed on me
The silence deafening
Standing in the ruins
A world forsaken
The empty faces of hollow creatures
Longing to awaken
Longing to awaken
Death comes for everyone
It’s in the water it’s in the air
When every step is a loaded gun
Every breath is a prayer
Their bodies crumble at the slightest contact
Few have managed to survive
Endless endeavor just to stay intact
Completely hollow inside
I cannot comprehend
What my eyes have seen
Are these the children of men
That I was sent to redeem
Before it even starts
Skin like feathers caked in mud
Nebulous speech outstretched arms
Protruding veins dripping blood
To the village of the living things
Hollow eyes transfixed on me
The silence deafening
A world forsaken
The empty faces of hollow creatures
Longing to awaken
Longing to awaken
It’s in the water it’s in the air
When every step is a loaded gun
Every breath is a prayer
Few have managed to survive
Endless endeavor just to stay intact
Completely hollow inside
What my eyes have seen
Are these the children of men
That I was sent to redeem
