Last Lament

So rather than dailyish thoughts, I should change the name to weeklyish thoughts. I'm a slacker, all of you should know that. Anywayzz, for today's post, I have the lyrics to a Called to Arms song called "The Last Lament." It's a pretty epic song and has some incredible lyrics. Enjoy!

Everything's so pretty now
Its a drunken love affair by candlelight
In the carefree city that lived in safety
Keep the candles dim

Your grief will meet your glory
Your grief, your glory
She's just a cold-blooded killer
Trying to stay warm
Hiding her identity from fire

Line up next to kings and generals
Make yourself at home in the harlot's bed
Where your luxuries pile as high as your sins
I watch in disbelief with hope for a greater comfort
One that fulfills

We still keep dancing in this masquerade
We'll dance until the world eats itself alive
We'll dance until the world eats itself alive

She's a supermodel filled with cyanide
Spilling innards by the bedside
And it spreads like a plague
Get in line

Fire feeding fire
This is the end of all
Fire burning higher
Tower of Babel never looked so small
Fire feeding fire
This is the end of all
Fire burning higher
Tower of Babel never looked so small

Consider this your last chance
Two thousand years of warning
Consider this your last dance
There's a time for play, there's a time for mourning
But there's a song of redemption to be sung
Where there's a chance there's a hope
If you answer the call of the Father

Run to me, because I love you
Run to me, my beloved,
Because change can't wait forever
This world wont last forever
Because change cant wait forever
This world wont last forever
And I can't wait until it doesn't
