lyrics

A melancholic fog
Settles over your sight,
Draining color away
From this life.

Strange death of poets.
Strange death of kings.

Striving toward negative capability.

Strange death of poets.
Struck at your lowest.

Early demise strips away all you might have been.

Strange death of kings.
Moot longing for meaning.

Try to justify God’s ways to man.
Words fail you in your task.

A ghost at rest in the Tower of Song.
His sigh reverberates through eternity,
Awaiting a wall of commiseration.

The unacknowledged legislators of this world
Are overwhelmed and cut down in their prime.
Monarchs and saints alike join us in the soil.

No almighty Lord had a hand in creating this cesspool,
But some men should be held accountable.
Hoarding riches and destroying lives
With the arrogant glee of sadistic children.

This elaborate edifice made of cards, built on lies.

When it crashes down from beneath us,
Who will be dragged into the abyss?
