Slowly I climb
Along the trembling spine of my spire
The higher I get
The more I see the world is on fire
And though they're covered with ash
I see myself in your eyes
Not long ago I was just as much lost
Send down Your scourge,
Tame the beast we're hiding
Send down Your sword,
Slice the silver lining
Send down your flame
And let it burn the whole world
Till all that's left is the road
(HECTIC!)
(HEAR THE SHOUT!)
(HECTIC!)
(LET US OUT!)
I hear your cries
But when we're flooded by waves of fear
Some of us drown
But all the rest will learn how to swim
And though you're not worth a spit
I'll let you drown in my arms
I was the first and now I'll be the last
Send down Your scourge,
Tame the beast we're hiding
Send down Your sword,
Slice the silver lining
Send down your flame
And let it burn the whole world
Till all that's left is the road
(INSTRUMENTAL)
And if you follow me,
And if you follow me
My scars will grant your feet
The safest crossing
And if you follow me,
And if you follow me
We could pretend that it was not for nothing
I guess it is worth a try
(INSTRUMENTAL)
Send down Your scourge,
Tame the beast we're hiding
Send down Your sword,
Slice the silver lining
Send down your flame
And let it burn the whole world
Till all that's left is the road
Send down Your scourge,
Tame the beast we're hiding
Send down Your sword,
Slice the silver lining
Send down your flame
And let it burn the whole world
Till all that's left is the road
