Serenity's Throne - Soulfallen

At the sundown of a civilization

The night air moves with a dismal tone

In the weakening grip of our infestation

Serenity will reclaim its throne

Today the sun was not born

Held down by heavy clouds of rain

No light for our last days

Desires long washed away…

I never saw the mountains moving

For me, the world was always still

I was held down by the weight of the waters

With heavy stones, my heart was always sealed

Tonight, the moon howled with scorn

To a pack of wolves dressed as men

In a flash, the stars were reformed

But as soon as I looked again

(I saw…)

What I saw was the end

Yet all still looked the same

No stigmas cast upon men

No pits of brimstone or flame

«Beholding the moors by twilight

Serenity that never came

I realized it was not carved for my name

But neither were the pits of brimstone and flame»

I never saw the mountains moving

For me, the world was always still

I never held the keys within me

The prophecies remained unfulfilled

I never saw the Earth in its grandeur

I only saw it on its knees

I never saw a wholesome picture

I only saw it torn piece by piece…
