Lirieke: Assemblage 23. Crush.

In dying light, the day is fading

Defeated eyes regard the sun

That sinks behind the broad horizon

Until the two melt into one

Beneath the gravity of failure

Pinned to the unforgiving earth

Bargains we made with fate unyielding

Proved to be without much worth



CHORUS

Raise your fists and crush eternity

In the name of all the suffering endured

When anger overtakes serenity

Restraint and limitation seem absurd



Outside there blows the winds of conflict

With howling gales that shake the ground

Awakening a quiet vengeance

Belief recovered, courage found



(CHORUS)



The tables turned, the balance shifted

And fragments of the day remain

To light the path in silent witness

To all the fury and the shame



(CHORUS)
