Sojourner - Perennial lyrics

Artist: Sojourner

album: Perennial


Time and time we've circled
Stood still as horrid acts unfurled
Dormant guilt, useless rage
For the last time will we relish this age
A realm so merciful and patient
Now yearning
To erase a species so complacent
We remain no longer
Empires turn to ash
And roads remain shadowed
Premonitions are futile
When we behave as cowards
The ultimate veil
Will fall
No longer
Will we stand tall
We've lingered far too long
In our cocoon
Become one with our mother
But we died too soon
The regret and shame we feel
Will always last in our reel
Dazed, cold, lonely, and scared
Centuries of torment she's fared
The torch we were once given
Dies out as our bodies stiffen
Empires turn to ash
And roads remain shadowed
Premonitions are futile
When we behave as cowards
The ultimate veil will fall
No longer will we stand tall
Forfeit our once sacred land
Behold the pathetic fall of man
Destroyers of beauty
Serene
Poisoned by endless acts
Obscene
Obscene
Obscene
Drink from the vile well of greed
From her very soul we feed
Eternal decay, it follows
A sight so rich, yet it's hollow
The ultimate veil
Revealed a future so bright
Never more will we
Be it's light
The ashes of empires
(Oh)
And shadowed roads now gone
Premonitions once futile
(Oh)
Gave way to a new dawn
