Two Wars - This or the Apocalypse

[04:53.0]Of all the wars you＇ve fought
[04:53.0]Which one is etched along your headstone
[04:53.0]Bygone, remote, and cast aside?
[04:53.0]Did you hold your hands every single night?
[04:53.0]Did you wash them in the waters of a grave?
[04:53.0]Silence in sovereign fleet the hand that dare seize the fire
[04:53.0]Struggle to sound above the piercing
[04:53.0]Echo trill of this hapless, bloody sigh
[04:53.0]Stalking in this fearful symmetry the trail back
[04:53.0]To the hammer, the chain, and the furnace
[04:53.0]Slowly they will tarnish and break
[04:53.0]The tiger utters not his own name
[04:53.0]And in triumph, and in glory
[04:53.0]Our earth is blackened
[04:53.0]In solace do we sing
[04:53.0]I＇m not ashamed
[04:53.0]If blood is what you ask
[04:53.0]Then I have nothing to offer [x2
[04:53.0]Your ghost is leaving; it has undone itself
[04:53.0]In death they do speak low into our ears
[04:53.0]＂I＇ve been waiting for this＂ [x2
[04:53.0]Slowly they will tarnish and break
[04:53.0]The tiger utters not his own name
[04:53.0]And in triumph, and in glory
[04:53.0]Our earth is blackened
[04:53.0]In solace do we sing [x5
[04:53.0]Unchanging
