Remains

The visions benign
The visions benign will be gone
What's left of all the fortune that we used to once retain
It was taken all for granted, wasted, now it is too late
Collecting all the pieces that have scattered far and wide
Now what's left to do is just to fly

We need to cut our chains so we can get higher
We need to overcome what we can't condone
And while our values burn in the heat of the pyre
The universe will call our name
Call us home when nothing else remains

Grey like all the wisdom that we used to once possess
Blue like the aimless spirit that threw away all its success
Red like the all bloodshed, spilled by the ton in vain
Left us crimson scars, these marks that will remain
The visions benign
The visions benign will be gone
We must configure the fate of humankind
We fought for traces like vultures in denial
Inept to save us the planet carries on
Once brilliant tale will soon be gone
Burn this place and bury what remains

We need to cut our chains so we can get higher
We need to overcome what we can't condone
And while our values burn in the heat of the pyre
The universe will call our name
The decadence has soiled what we used to aspire for
When things have spiraled out of our loose control
And while our values burn in the heat of the pyre
The universe will call our name
Call us home when nothing else remains
When nothing else remains
There's nothing but remains
