Ivory Tower

Silence

Ivory Tower


Thunder from afar. Above a glaring star 
The wings spring up from out of nowhere 
Calm before the storm. Seasons acting as they want 
Nobody knows nothingness is marching on 
The sky has turned to grey. The sun has gone another way 
Seems like something wicked's coming up today 
Blocked and blinded minds have never seen the signs 
The ends been drawing near this time 
>From the past to the question what will be 
Has never been an open mind to see 
The last way out from our destiny 

After all the hurt silence of the world's 
Waking up the universe 
Natural purge 
Back to a new beginning 

Mankind's on the edge of existence 
I'm watching from a distance 
Where many people've gone before 
Walls are tumbling down 
Mankind's on the run 
A higher force has taken over 
And nothingness is marching on 

After all the hurt silence of the world's 
Waking up the universe 
Natural purge 
Back to a new beginning 

Timeless we thought our life would be 
Will only be a memory 
Bow to the inevitable 
The human race has to pay its price 
Sorrow and pain could never repair 
The damage to the world around us 
Sair pollution, exploitation and the will for alteration 
Step by step into nothingness 
And nothingness is marching on 

After all the hurt silence of the world's 
Waking up the universe 
Natural purge 
Back to a new beginning
