Iron Skies Lyrics

Arid lands and tainted seas
Directing to where I began
The sun is setting
Leaving shadows in its wake
A lonely star won't shine forever
Losing myself within the fall
To find relinquish in the moon

Staring down at these lands
Scrutinising judgements
Polarising traces in the sand
Forever I have wished for this road just to end
Questioning not just myself, but everything I've come to understand

A lonely star won't shine forever
Abandoned, not a whisper on the wind to guide you home
And all must fade into never

Upon this judgement
Behold the new decree
A reign of terror
Enshrouding land and sea
They reach out for salvation
But they shall find nothing for me

I met the herd who were trusted with this world
Their lives as savage as the future they uphold
Negligence and strife, the colours of their kingdom
Leaving nothing in their path

I travelled far, denied once of my prophecy Thrice I have fallen
Thrice I have learned
Thus weaves the loom of fate, around my blistered skin
And yet it ceases to amaze me how the cattle march to death

There's no hope
For you who cannot see
Beyond the nightmare
Hold onto what you could be
What you could not bear to lose

My sight fails me
Trapped in a desert sea
Always pushing ever on with no sign of relief
Never did I dream that I would fall so hard and keep on walking
Such sweet sorrow
Iron skies

There's no hope
For you who cannot see
Beyond the nightmare
Hold onto what you could be
What you could not bear to lose

Arid lands and tainted seas directing to where I began
Thrice I have fallen
Thrice I have learned
A lonely star won't shine forever
The sun is setting, leaving shadows in its wake

A lonely star won't shine forever
And all must fade into never
