Lux Aeterna eterna Lux Impera pera Do you see it The light stutters [Verse 1] A billion souls bent low in prayer Before a throne that cannot move The light once endless now unsure A dying god that must endure Golden wires drink the night Feeding him their borrowed light Ten thousand voices burned to black To keep the beacon from collapse hold the line feed the throne he must live say his name [Chorus] The light is breaking Our faith is shaking A hollow fire that feeds the tide The throne is failing The warp is paling And something stirs where faith has died. [Verse 2] We carved our path through burning faith We spoke his holy endless name Through storm and warp through howling night We followed one eternal light But now the signal bends and fades A fractured hymn in dying waves The silence cuts where hope once shone A million worlds with no way home If the light goes out tonight No beacon left to chart our flight If the throne should finally fall His silence will consume us all [Chorus] The light is breaking Our hands are shaking We're drifting blind between the stars The throne is calling I hear it falling A shattered god who holds the line he must endure [Bridge] We gave him everything we are Our breath our blood our mortal souls And still we stand and still we pray As all the light grows thin and frayed If there's a spark beneath the throne If he is not yet truly gone I know [Chorus] The light still lingers Through mortal fingers We try to hold what slips away The throne remembers In dying embers A god who will not fade to grey I am still here
