In The Here And The Everafter

Will you miss the sea when it's gone from your eyes?
Will you hear her silent calling?
Will you come to know that utopia lies,
And the spires of old are falling?
There is madness here and it's bound to get worse
With every hour
Things we all hold dear will go down the same course
From sweet to sour

So speak to me now of the power you hold
Over creatures of hollow laughter
And nail down my hands on a cross of deceit
In the here and the everafter
Will you hide the sun in a cloud of your own
Twisted desires?
As the rain dissolves all the truths we had known,
So end our empires

Let them nail you down on a cross of deceit
By your own choices.
Let them make your crown be a crown of defeit
And mute your voices
So speak to me now of the power you hold
Over creatures of hollow laughter
And nail down my hands on a cross of deceit
In the here and the everafter.
