Exodus and Exile

We're fading away
No reason to stay

The supplicants beg for salvation to come
Their ignorant rivers all flow into one
And I know, that their pain will just go on

For we walk this path, no turning back for home
But to walk this path will mean never to know

Kneeling, scarred
Entrance barred

Rushed headlong into the darkness,
May we find our strength, everlasting

We've left it all behind
We've left it all behind
To build a vanquished throne
No truth we can deny
The past of doom untold
I ask you risk your life
We travel the unknown
To forge on or to die

March

As they wander into silence
I can hear the breaking of bones
The breaking of bonds which have held them together
Will wither away as they go astray

The misery
And the suffering
They will march one by one
As if straight towards the sun
Death shading their grim horizon

Never return
Never return again

It's been so long since I've seen them
The cleansing envious flames
They burn brighter, in the black starless night
Burning endless in strife, eager to devour human life

Our minds have awakened
Our faith was mistaken
Fed perilous lies
Were it no surprise?

The misery
And the suffering
They will march one by one
As if straight towards the sun
Death shading their grim horizon

Never return
Never return again

If I could stand
Face to face
Against the crooked frame of man

I would cry
Leave no trace
You're never to return again

Again

We left it all behind
To build a vanquished throne
No truth we can't deny
The past of doom unfolds
I ask you give your life
To journey the unknown
You forge on then you die
A sacrifice of light
