The Great Silence

radiant sky
grains of sand
abandoned hope
in this godforsaken land
in empty towns
long lost dreams
like silhouettes
in the restless wind

gonna ride away now
through the ruins the sadness
and the flames

into the night
in the shade of your dream
in the shade that you sleep
into the night
in the shade of your dream
the great silence is here

I've seen the pictures
the day before
your eyes so sad
and now you're gone
there's no surrender
only blood on our hands
no forgiveness, no forgiveness

gonna ride away now
through the ruins the sadness
and the pain

radiant sky
grains of sand
abandoned hope
in this godforsaken land
haunting voices
their long lost dreams
dead flowers grow
where the restless sleep

gonna ride away now
through the sadness
and the flames

comes the morning
been here too long
the day after the day before
I heard you calling but the wind blows
