Reckoning Lyrics by Undying

At History’s End

2003

Ashes to ashes
Forever we fall down
With broken dreams, we're blind to see
What twisted words they tell
In a sky that's without stars tonight
Where nightmares grow so real
How far we fall, forever lost
In broken concrete fields

In a world that grinds so ceaselessly
Where the wheels of culture turn

Where machines of hate speak hideously
And heaven's brightness burns
Offered up the fruits of slavery
Sown - The poisonous seeds of forgetting
Grow choking vines like bitter tragedies
And piercing thorns unseen

And so runs the world away
On scriptured lies, the ash of memory
And so we fall away
On scriptured lies, the ash of memory

In the withered tongues of love, we'll speak
Our whisperhidden heresies
Ten thousand years of bondage and their culture's black disease

May this
Bloodstained tale
Come to an end
Blessed are we, who are without hope at history's end

And we have buried
What we have known of love
Come, hollow eyes, and unseen thoughts
And brutal selfishness
And these scars of hate will never heal
These wounds that do bleed dry
Our mother earth condemned to die alone
And she does cry

As we have grown deaf to the ceaseless roar
Of paradise burning forevermore
Choked with ash, those dreams within us
Are waiting to be born

Let us speak of god
Let us speak of pain
Let us speak of suffering, sin, and hate
Shut tight our eyes to their hollow lies
In this broken land of the dead
May silver tongue screams fall upon deaf ears
May the rivers of heaven run red

May the rivers run red
