Lyrics
You can't see what I see
Horizon 20/20
That rich vein: My end game
Lies beneath your feet
The purge, the blackout
Transmission of the fallout
The richer the history
The harder you fall
A soundless echo
An obsolete illusion
Your graven extinction
An effigy of death
Stripping flesh and scorching earth
Laying waste to bark and bone
The kingdom's gone thy will's been done
Spirits petrified in stone
Stripping flesh and scorching earth
Laying waste to bark and bone
The kingdom's gone thy will's been done
Spirits petrified in stone
The first wave hit and broke our backs
But the second ripped hearts out
Cries pierced the night we lost the fight
We were one now all but gone
Stripping flesh and scorching earth
Laying waste to bark and bone
The kingdom's gone thy will's been done
Spirits petrified in stone
A soundless echo
An obsolete illusion
Your graven extinction
An effigy of death
