Temple of Rust [OG VERSION ]
[Character Monologue: Spoken Word] "hah, hah, hah... Huh, I didn't think I'd made it here... after all this... just a little bit further down..." [Verse 1] I wander through these old ruins The Factory that now lies still, crumbling, rusting, breaking down Remnants of the time before, the Day the sky came falling down [Verse 2] I share this past, I knew this place With all its noise and glory Roaring, thumping, steam and sparks A heart that kept on beating [Instrumental Bridge] [Pre-Chorus] Broken Walls of concrete, they scream agony and despair Steel is rusting, water dripping Ghosts of the Past still linger, can still feel their presence in the Air [Chorus] Silent factory - My Temple of Rust Between broken gears and molten Steel I wander through your history I remember the day you went up in flames The Day that never meant to be [Verse 3] Cables, Pipes and rusted metal Like Veins, like Bones and rotten flesh The Bombs have killed you and ripped open now time is feasting on your Corpse [Bridge] Through this door and then turn left My old Locker is still standing You can still read my Name on the damn thing It creaks open and I see the Treasure, The Flames that day have taken, taken away from me. A silent fall, I grab it fast, A Picture spared by the flames My Eyes tear up, Hands start shaking, My Wife, my Kids - All Life's taken By the Bombs that fell that day [Verse 4] What is it worth, why fighting on? When you're lost and alone All I Loved was lost that Day For no fucking reason! [Chorus] Silent factory - My Temple of Rust Between broken gears and molten Steel I wander through your history I remember the day you went up in flames The Day that never meant to be [Instrumental Solo] [Verse 5] I sat there hours, maybe days Lost all hope and will to live Untill I hear her Angel Voice "Honey don't give up, we're staying by your side" [Outro: Calm] She's standing there, offers her Hand I grab it, pain and sadness floods, then nothing for a second I see myself just lying there. I guess I've finally made it. I kiss my Wife and hug my Kids - we're finally go home...
