Songtext von AT THE HEART OF ALL THINGS BROKEN

Eye-to-eye with the skyline In solitude by the windowpane I watch as nights descend upon A twilight city, glazed in rain And staring back at me From deep inside the glass and steel My own disfigured image My own disfigured image Marred and stained, it is revealed As from ashes, rise a monolithic tower An obelisk comprised in my disguise Founded on the remnants of humanity Thus, for transcendence, I have paid the price Oh, I have paid the price We could trace the ruins' shadow back to greatness Sense the strength and grace of times gone by Still, they're but decrepit tombs and epitaphs Of power, pride, and loss, and so am I In depths of tragedy resides In depths of tragedy resides A seed of the sublime At the heart of all things broken At the heart of all things broken A spark of the divine A spark of the divine And I have seen the vibrant sheen The eye's inherent alchemy Intoxicated rhapsody A madness in which I remain And any fragile impulse To return, to love, would be in vain This antler crown exceeds beyond The arch to your domain
