i. eruption
1, 2, 3 4!
[instrumental]
ii. stones of years
[verse 1]
has the dawn ever seen your eyes?
have the days made you so unwise?
realize, you are
[verse 2]
had you talked to the winds of time
then you’d know how the waters rhyme
taste of wine
[verse 3]
how can you know where you’ve been?
in time, you’ll see the sign
and realize your sin
(ah~ah~ah~ah)
[keyboard solo]
[verse 4]
will you know how the seed is sown?
all your time has been overgrown
never known
[verse 5]
have you walked on the stones of years?
when you speak, is it you that hеars?
are your ears full?
you can’t hear anything at all
iii. iconoclast 06:27~07:43
[instrumental]
iv. mass
[verse 6]
thе preacher said a prayer
save every single hair on his head, he’s dead
the minister of hate
had just arrived too late to be spared
who cared?
[refrain]
the weaver in the web that he made
[verse 7]
the pilgrim wandered in
committing every sin that he could, so good
the cardinal of grief
was set in the belief he’d be saved
from the grave
[refrain]
the weaver in the web that he made
[keyboard solo]
[verse 8]
the high priest took a blade
to bless the ones that prayed and all obeyed
the messenger of fear
is slowly growing, nearer to the time
a sign
[refrain]
the weaver in the web that he made
[verse 9]
a bishop rings a bell
a cloak of darkness fell across the ground
without a sound
the silent choir sing and in their silence
bring jaded sound, harmonic ground
[refrain]
the weaver in the web that he made
v. manticore
[instrumental]
vi. battlefield (including epitaph)
[verse 10]
clear the battlefield and let me see
all the profit from our victory
you talk of freedom, starving children fall
are you deaf when you hear the season’s call?
[verse 11]
were you there to watch the earth be scorched?
did you stand beside the spectral torch?
now the leaves of sorrow turned their face
scattered on the ashes of disgrace
[instrumental break]
[verse 12]
every blade is sharp, the arrows fly
where the victims of your armies lie
were the blades of grass and arrows rain
then there’d be no sorrow, be no pain
[verse 13]
confusion will be my epitaph
as i crawl a cracked and broken path
if we make it, we can all sit back and laugh
vii. aquatarkus
[instrumental]
[outro]
thank you
