The Fall Lyrics

Fear, in my head,

Left me breathless, left for dead

I wrote this when all foes had bled

Wingtips coated red

(And so at)

First light of the God of Dawn,

I wipe the blade till the blood is gone,

Mastodon, I trample on

The paths that go beyond

(This is the)

Final stand before the fall of man

Void in our cores like holograms

But I'm a pillar resisting the arid futility

If will is a pistol prepare the artillery

When I dream at night

Swept up in a beam of light

Another time, another being

Free of the demons' eyes

To rise in wingless flight

I thought they told me

I'd climb the wall

I'd find it all

But,

This is the tale

Behind the fall

Gluttony's sacred

We taste the forbidden and rape it or break it

Or take it and trade it for pieces of gold

We're locked in this hole and the keys have been sold

I'm cornered, alone, it's cold, and I'm freezing, the ire is creeping in

I'm fire, Promethean, fire at will at the beast till I die, or he sleeps again

When I'm in a mood like this,

In the room with the view of where the moonlight rests-

Fuck you and I, and humankind

It's do or die or suicide,

Dooming eyes that stupefy and paralyze,

Orbiting like satellites or parasites,

Holding me from paradise

Humankind dehumanized,

Fooled to think we're unified

They led me in and closed the locks

Lost inside Pandora's Box

Imprisoned in this hellish race

Guardians that fell from grace

But from the gates of Stygian oblivion

An obelisk, a monolith, obsidian

My ominous dominion

I'll live again, until the fall

I'll build a wall or kill them all
