guardsman - chapter ii - valley and storm lyrics

Loading...

sun sets but shines below
the sculptor’s left the stage
what hammer is left him?
come reap what you’ve never sown
only the end delayed
the scythe flays your sanity

re+play to scale the rampart
rewind to fall again
look off to chase the vision
climb out to creep back in
give in or hold forever
push on or lie asleep
iron will or pushed flat over
ride the wind or fight the gale

the marble falls, no time to win
you see it all, distorted by the mirror of sin
the storm rolls down again
the gods break your mind and make your end

every day you strive and struggle
but who really pulls the strings?
random impact, fluctuation
the gods of everything?
do numbers rule?
can you defy the maker’s law?
all you’re ever meant to be
a slave without a bond
(a different twin, complex, unpredictable, from within, unchain
your chance to win, to lose, all decided, the course is set, machine.)

intentions fall, no time to win
the mirror draws you on to your oblivion
while in the haze
the storm begins

the storm beats down your barren life
and it takes its toll on you
the night reclaims the wasteland
and the mirror has its due
a leer, deranged
and the hammer crashes down
to drive the rot beneath your skin
a laugh the only sound

convictions fall, no time to win, my friend
just fall back again
you’ve seen it all, distorted by the madness within
the waters take you in

and carry you back to your end
far away and broken
the bloodstains soaking in
to wash the rain away
it’s never seen again
but always there beside you
can it ever mend?
