Out of Ruin, Misery - A Hope For Home

I have dreamt in shades of red

That with our hands we’d raise the dead

Let us behold all that we have done;

Immortal, privileged, among us lies not one

Indifferent, the waves crash down

Indifferent, we are bound

I have seen in shades of red

And upon the remains of incredible rage, we stand

Though we aspire, and long to transcend

A great divorce from earth’s cruel hand shall not be won by the likes of man

Indifferent, the waves crash down

Indifferent, we are bound

For centuries, our reach extended not beyond the trees

Yet now, we’ve breached the skyline and mapped the seas

Still, the earth bends farther than we see

And in the end, we will all be swallowed up by the deep

Do we shape this endless hate with sculptor’s touch, our eyes ablaze?

Or does it seek us out as prey, and fan our flames?

For I see in red

For I see in red

For I see in red

And it’s all that’s left

Forever we break and cannot mend

As crowns fall from the heads of men!
