Kingdom of dust lyrics

Stone by stone the pillars cracked Truth forgotten, turning black Voices echoed through the years Buried underneath the fears Golden idols lined the way Promising another day Blind devotion, empty eyes Smoke ascending to the skies The fathers built what should not stand Passing shadows hand to hand Every generation bowed To the lies they once allowed Ancient words became unknown Lost beneath a borrowed throne Dust collected on the page Silence ruled another age Kingdom of Dust Built to fall Kingdom of Dust Hear the call No one questioned, no one cared The sacred halls stood stripped and bare Broken lamps and shattered gates Waiting for a change of fate Yet beneath the weight of years Past the silence and the tears Something hidden still remained Waiting to be found again Under layers of neglect Beneath the ruins and regret A forgotten voice survives Somewhere deep where memory hides Kingdom of Dust Built to fall Kingdom of Dust Hear the call Kingdom of Dust One last chance Before the turning of the sands
