dischordia - the road lyrics
burned
burned
our last great monument
the works of mankind revered by ghosts
the works of mankind cursed by hollow men
a casket of earth, a shroud of sky
our fathers built us a mighty grave
death was chosen for us
and death surrounds us
a skeleton tree, a winter of ashes
spectral songs of hatred in the air
death was chosen for them
and death surrounds them
for all the fleeting whims of man, i have learned nothing
though choking on a world of dust, i have learned nothing
the corpse of our mother shrieks on the wind
“take this bittеr end that you have given mе”
the corpse of his mother haunts my memory
“there was no saving me, and there is no saving him
take this bitter end, for there is nothing else”
“my dear friend, you have toiled far too long
that unforgiving road holds you but a breath away
there is no life in your long and weary march
rest your tired bones where we have spoken in dreams”
