After the fall The smoke rising up from the sand Shattered ground below And moving a skeletal hand You're raising these bones You're shaking off the dust Breaking from the hold The flesh beneath the crust Shivering limbs Slowly creeping towards the edge The expanse below A solitary star ahead It draws you in A tremor from the core You can hear the call It's time to come back home The palest light Is leading into the grave Your mind decays and takes you into the cold The earth cracking open, the old world has to die A wail from the darkness below We crawl from the ashes moving towards the light After the fall Your body raised A wandering ghost Burning with new blood The searing mark emblazed And you leave behind A yawning empty grave The way inside Is paved with every mistake A cold embrace The spectre leaving the host The earth cracking open, the old world has to die A wail from the darkness below We crawl from the ashes moving towards the light After the fall Will we find what we're searching, break free from the hold Or are we on a path that leads us astray Oh we shovel the dirt, we're looking for gold What if we have been wrong all the way The world must be broken and cast to the flames We crawl from the ashes remade
