Petrichor

Blood of the Gods
Bathing in their demise
Ripped in half
You're nearly satisfied

I know it's too soon, you're too far away
Along the shoreline I walked in complete disarray
Touched the water to see my reflection erase
Among the thousands, why do I have to pray?

Like a puppeteer
Whispered in my ear
Couldn't get rid of all the threads
They won't disappear

Generations
Fear their own nations
The only prison is my fear of your patience

Burning my lungs
Inhaling the ashes
Encased by the embers
Patiently waiting for the storm to end the drought

After days without rain
I need to smell drying grass again
Promise me I can feel the sensation
Again and again and again

After days without rain
Accompanied with the pain
The sunlight shines on my broken skin
I give in, sing me your finest hymn

The trumpets sound
Witness the end
Herald a new dawn

For all it's worth
I witness the end
Of all the kingdoms you promised to bless

For all it's worth
I witness the end
Of all the landmarks gone up in flames

Sending forth all of your puppets
Blaming everyone else but yourself

This is the apocalypse
Before the storm there will be eternal drought

After days without rain
I need to smell drying grass again
Promise me I can feel the sensation
Again and again and again

After days without rain
Accompanied with the pain
The sunlight shines on my broken skin
I give in, sing me your finest hymn
