Lethal Metal

Arrival

Lethal Metal


An early warning 
Forging notes that never die 
The air now rings with dissonant sound 
Screaming our last prayer 
For this cross that we bare grows much heavier 
Holding us down when we fall from our feet 

As the storms of time subside 
The coals from past life will fuel this fire 
Dreams carry us on to believe 
And die for the things we had hoped for 
The arrival sets us free 

A killing season 
Blinding words obscuring the plain 
Poisoning the lips of the newborn in vain 
Distant signs of light 
Deliver us from the night we were drowning 
But now we've been washed 
Onward to a new shore 

As the storms of time subside 
The coals from past life will fuel this fire 
Dreams carry us on to believe 
And die for the things we had hoped for 
The arrival sets us free 
Dreams carry us on to believe 
And die for the things we had hoped for 
The arrival sets us free 

They call this reason 
Different views through different eyes 
If you speak the truth why do I see lies 
Distant signs of light 
Will smooth these rough seas that we ride 
We were drowning 
But now we've been washed 
Onward to a new shore 
Over and over and over
