[Intro: Slow crushing fuzzy guitar riff, ringing cymbals] [Verse 1: Haunting clean vocals, crawling slow tempo] You are the creator of empires You only know how to possess You confuse ownership with selfishness You hide under a cross If I had known… If I had known I would never have gone near you You always ask for more And give nothing in return [Pre-Chorus, sleepy voice] Lamb of heroic traditions With a flower in your hand And a legendary emblem You think you are a conqueror [Chorus: Monolithic heavy chords, dragging rhythm] Walking on the dust In love with pain Your home is an open wound That you know very well That you know very well Walking on the line Along the edge of the sky Beside you there are no footsteps Nor the echo of a voice Nor the echo of a voice [Verse 2] You look at yourself in the reflection of Water Not even your shadow wants to keep you company A storm covers you at night Like an impenetrable shield My words fall into the void Like a shooting star And yet I can't stop thinking If you had been born somewhere else… somewhere else [Pre-Chorus, sleepy voice] Lamb of heroic traditions With a flower in your hand And a legendary emblem You think you're a conqueror [Chorus: Monolithic heavy chords, dragging rhythm] Walking on the dust In love with pain Your home is an open wound That you know very well That you know very well Walking on the line Along the edge of the sky Beside you there are no footsteps Nor the echo of a voice Nor the echo of a voice [Verse 3] My words set me free They condemn you to a single place You are victim and executioner Who doesn't recognize their place You only see your wounds While you crush others Your ideas remain Engraved On unbreakable stone. [Pre-Chorus, sleepy voice] Lamb of heroic traditions With a flower in your hand And a legendary emblem You think you're a conqueror [Chorus: Monolithic heavy chords, dragging rhythm] Walking on the dust In love with pain Your home is an open wound That you know all too well That you know all too well Walking on the line Along the edge of the sky Beside you there are no footsteps Nor the echo of a voice Nor the echo of a voice [Bridge: Trippy psychedelic bluesy guitar solo, heavy distortion] Will you ever wake up? Perhaps there's nothing left to save Will you ever be able to see the sky from the same place? When you understand that heaven's time is your time The mortal seconds tick by It's time to wake up [Final Chorus] Walking on the dust In love with the pain Your home is an open wound That you know all too well That you know all too well Walking on the line Along the edge of heaven Beside you there are no footsteps Nor the echo of a voice Nor the echo of a voice It's time to wake up [Outro: Fading guitar feedback, slow drum beats]
