lyrics

Sunrise
Of the final day
Scent of carrion
Blow in the winds of change
Gathered deep
Beneath the coming storm
What are we running for
We’re at the edge of the world

Boats are taking port
To light this final torch
Its glowing embers smoke
Of our fading hope
This beacon starts to rot
We gather near and far
To sing this final song
To show you’re not alone
We’ve lost what’s left of hope
We crowd its sinking boat
The darkness breaking through
Time now we face this doom

As I stare into that starry night
The cold air is swirling through my mind
With the tears in my eyes, I let a final cry
Let this...

Somewhere
Beyond this nightmare
I find clarity
To carry on
Much like a shipwreck
Deep in the ocean
I feel your current
Wash me
Ashore

Boats are taking port
To light this final torch
Its glowing embers smoke
Of our fading hope
This beacon starts to rot
We gather near and far
To sing this final song
To show you’re not alone
We’ve lost what’s left of hope
We crowd its sinking boat
The darkness breaking through
Time now we say our goodbye

In the gallows
At the edge of the world
The ships align
To see the end of time
In the gallows
We come to mourn
Though not quite yet
There is still time left

At dawn's last light
Of the world we knew
We hold your hand
Until the end
As you take flight
Into the moonlight
Now bury me
Deep in the sea

In the gallows
At the edge of the world
The ships align
To see the end of time
In the gallows
We come to mourn
Though please not yet
There's no time left

In the gallows
At the end of the world
The stars align
For the final time
In the gallows
We gather in kind
To see dawn’s last light
And say our final
Goodbye
