The Watchtower
Through times I thought of what we created
For greater causes that brought us down to this
In elderly forms and surroundings
In the flesh of spirits incarnated
They are here for the hate forgotten
A rearview mirror to all lost souls
A slow burn shattered the field
Pain through body fire drained vein
A slow burn shattered the field
Pain through body fire drained vein
Walk down to the watchtower
And with the right kind of eyes
See waves roll in and over
Never could you see the watermark
The ground is shaking
From all the people below
One thing I've learned from this is
What you reap is what you sow
Man marches through the rust and dust
The burning fields will soon be ashes
Bodies woven in smoke and skin
And clouds descend to the sea
I see the bonds that tie belief
For this I choose to sink
I see the bonds that tie belief
For this I choose to sink
Walk down to the watchtower
And with the obscure shapes
See smoke roll in and over
Never will we see the lights
Man marches through the rust and dust
The burning fields will soon be ashes
Bodies woven in smoke and skin
And clouds descend to the sea
I see the bonds that tie belief
For this I choose to sink
I see the bonds that tie belief
For this I choose to sink
Walk down to the watchtower
And with the obscure shapes
See smoke roll in and over
Never will we see the lights
For greater causes that brought us down to this
In elderly forms and surroundings
In the flesh of spirits incarnated
They are here for the hate forgotten
A rearview mirror to all lost souls
A slow burn shattered the field
Pain through body fire drained vein
A slow burn shattered the field
Pain through body fire drained vein
Walk down to the watchtower
And with the right kind of eyes
See waves roll in and over
Never could you see the watermark
The ground is shaking
From all the people below
One thing I've learned from this is
What you reap is what you sow
Man marches through the rust and dust
The burning fields will soon be ashes
Bodies woven in smoke and skin
And clouds descend to the sea
I see the bonds that tie belief
For this I choose to sink
I see the bonds that tie belief
For this I choose to sink
Walk down to the watchtower
And with the obscure shapes
See smoke roll in and over
Never will we see the lights
Man marches through the rust and dust
The burning fields will soon be ashes
Bodies woven in smoke and skin
And clouds descend to the sea
I see the bonds that tie belief
For this I choose to sink
I see the bonds that tie belief
For this I choose to sink
Walk down to the watchtower
And with the obscure shapes
See smoke roll in and over
Never will we see the lights
