Lyrics
Intro
(Spoken)
The sky has turned to lead
The weight of the air is felt
The roof is broken and jagged
The water tastes of salt
I stand where the kings once fell
Verse 1
Grey clouds choke the light
Rain falls on cold stone
Water fills the deep cracks
Iron gates are rusted shut
The saint has lost his head
The roof is open wide
To let the winter in
(Let it in)
Chorus
Flood the altar now
Wash the blood away
Memory is a heavy blade
The storm will never end
The salt is in the wound
The time is lost to us
(Lost to us)
Verse 2
I hold the wet dirt
My hands are black with earth
I hear the thunder roll
The sky is a grey tomb
The statues weep for us
In this hollow hall
The wood begins to rot
The icons turn to dust
(Turn to dust)
Chorus
Flood the altar now
Wash the blood away
Memory is a heavy blade
The storm will never end
The salt is in the wound
The time is lost to us
(Lost to us)
Bridge
Stand tall in the deluge
Let the stone crumble
I am the last one
I will not bow to time
The crown is buried deep
Under the falling waves
The age of man is done
(Man is done)
Chorus
Flood the altar now
Wash the blood away
Memory is a heavy blade
The storm will never end
The salt is in the wound
The time is lost to us
(Lost to us)
Outro
The rain remains
The stone remains
I am the rain
(I am the rain)
The end is here
The end is here
(Here)
