poison ruïn - blighted quarter lyrics
the flooded lands
on the edge of the hold
untenable land
non+arable land
left overgrown
they left to the cold
but still, an ember glows
and a wildflower blooms when left alone
there is a beauty
blighted quarter
a people abandoned
the buildings, they will crumble
but the spirit never dies
in the streets
no children play
and the carrion prey
discarded banners
from a better day
but through an open window
you can hear somebody singing
and the vultures turn their heads
and they lift their heavy wings
blighted quarter
a people forgotten
a hunger may contort them
but the will can never die
their lord, he would deny them
but the spirit will defy
the spirit will defy
blighted quarter
a people forgotten
a hunger may contort them
but the will can never die
blighted quarter
a people abandoned
the buildings, they will crumble
but the spirit never dies
