Cathedrals of Dust

[Intro: Haunting, echoing choir with soft, crumbling sounds] (lost my faith) [Verse 1] The wind it howls through cathedrals of dust, Where faith has crumbled into rust. The walls, they whisper with brittle bones, Of kingdoms fallen, of silent thrones. I walk the aisles where shadows pray, To gods forgotten and led astray. The stained glass eyes no longer weep, For all the promises they couldn’t keep. [Pre-Chorus] The altar stands, a cracked mirage, (lost my faith) Beneath a sky of failed barrage. (lost my faith) [Chorus] In cathedrals of dust, I kneel alone, ooooh A pilgrim lost, a heart of stone. The echoes call from broken spires, ooooh A hymn of cold, extinguished fires. And every step I take, I find, ooooh A prayer that’s left without a mind. [Verse 2] The pillars bend beneath the weight, Of countless years and endless fate. The sacred light, it dims and fades, As silence wraps the hallowed shades. The air, it tastes of ancient grief, Of faith eroded like a leaf. And though I search these halls for grace, I find but shadows in their place. [Pre-Chorus] The dust it falls like quiet rain, (lost my faith) And with each breath, I feel the strain. (lost my faith) [Chorus] In cathedrals of dust, I kneel alone, A pilgrim lost, a heart of stone. The echoes call from broken spires, A hymn of cold, extinguished fires. And every step I take, I find, A prayer that’s left without a mind. (lost my faith)|(lost my faith) [Outro: Faint choir fading into distant, crumbling echoes]
