lyrics

I) The Watch

I take my place
A witness to the End of Days
The silencing of the world
In the sun’s dying rays
Mankind’s demise
Gasping at it's last breath
One last golden horizon
Then lonely death

The night forever
An eternity in wait
The pestilence of man
Ushered in by our own fate
Gaze to the black heaven
We are a world standing still
Our twilight reaching for us
At last tranquil

II) The Darkness

Serenity and misery
Breach the borders of eternity
Never to rise from black wings
Fools were those who thought them kings
The crossroads of oblivion
Where angels loose their way
Tombs of ice shall be their rest
Fallen to the Great Darkness

III) A Deafening Quiet

A deafening quiet
Sings the songs of our bitter end
A populace of statues
Guardians with nothing to defend
Slithering shadows
Bleeding over withering light
Our dead sun, our deaths knell
Dawn of our perpetual night

A deafening quiet
Sings the songs of our bitter end
A populace of statues
Guardians with nothing to defend
Our dead sun, it's death knell
Dawn of our night
In the suns dying light

IV) Hope

Now here lies hope
A rebirth ...of the end of days
A shining golden world
At the dawn of days
