Cathedral of Bones Songtext
von Flaming Wrekage
Cathedral of Bones Songtext
The church of doomsday worships the end
With chilling hymns to the immortal dead
Skeletons exhumed by the blind
A macabre vestige of mankind
Eradicated
A lifeless husk
I clutch my only weapon; a fallen giants tusk
A thousand rotting corpses lie in our wake
Pleading ignorance for our grave mistakes
What′s left of a bleak world?
What's left of a cold world?
But my will to survive
To overcome
These ruins will collapse an ungodly smite
A blackened chapel plagued by parasites
Darkness consumes these lowlands
We can never wash the blood from our hands
The blood from our hands
A litany of sins
Have brought us here
We ask ourselves
Did we ever hold this dear?
Born in a cathedral of bones
In the shadow of an unmarked tombstone
Born into a dying world without a backbone
We′ve learnt to swim in a bleached graveyard
A generation born scarred
Our first steps were on broken ground
Born to die, born to drown
Hand in hand into extinction
The ground beneath us is soaked in blood
Walk with me through this final midnight
Stand and become one with the flood
I won't die in this bone cathedral
I will not succumb to this evil
If there's hope
I stand alone
With chilling hymns to the immortal dead
Skeletons exhumed by the blind
A macabre vestige of mankind
Eradicated
A lifeless husk
I clutch my only weapon; a fallen giants tusk
A thousand rotting corpses lie in our wake
Pleading ignorance for our grave mistakes
What′s left of a bleak world?
What's left of a cold world?
But my will to survive
To overcome
These ruins will collapse an ungodly smite
A blackened chapel plagued by parasites
Darkness consumes these lowlands
We can never wash the blood from our hands
The blood from our hands
A litany of sins
Have brought us here
We ask ourselves
Did we ever hold this dear?
Born in a cathedral of bones
In the shadow of an unmarked tombstone
Born into a dying world without a backbone
We′ve learnt to swim in a bleached graveyard
A generation born scarred
Our first steps were on broken ground
Born to die, born to drown
Hand in hand into extinction
The ground beneath us is soaked in blood
Walk with me through this final midnight
Stand and become one with the flood
I won't die in this bone cathedral
I will not succumb to this evil
If there's hope
I stand alone
