We died among you Where no flames shall burn A patrician of song A stone in the earth A spear of black A banner of bone We died among you Where no flames shall burn A patrician of song A stone in the earth
Of song and reverie Of times long since gone Far from reach again Soaring so high Above us all To reach the sky To tame the flame Of times long since gone
Calling for you Reaching for you Like a dream in us all Ye shall awaken And ye shall know A time of war
We stand before you A unity of might An ensuing tide Crashing upon the shore We are of your flesh A child of your womb The blood in your veins In ashes we are spent
We stand before you A unity of might An ensuing tide Crashing upon the shore We are of your flesh A child of your womb The blood in your veins In ashes we are spent
We are the earth The ebbing flow of time The end and beginning And all of nothing We shall take all The shape of the clouds The mark of the wind The vast open sky
Where only blood shall rule Where only blood shall rule Where only blood shall rule Where only blood shall rule Blood shall rule Blood shall rule Blood shall rule
Monument of blood and rule A singe upon my flesh Of kings and gods I sing unto thee Monument of steel and might The spring from which I flow Of lords and men Mark and know it well Death, a blessing The storm of steel has come Away, a moment The ways of flesh undone
Monument of life and death Each stone upon this earth Of age and merit I sing unto thee Monument of grace and lust The desire in your heart Of pain and ruin Savage, one and all Death, a blessing The storm of steel has come Away, a moment The ways of flesh undone
Vast, and open The everlasting sky Great, and distant Below, the mortal glow
