[Verse 1] The waters were heavy, the waters were deep Seven long cycles of promises to keep The arch in the center, the boundary set tight Holding the line through the turn of the night Seven hundred and twenty laid down in the stone The old seed is buried, the shadow is gone [Chorus] Step through the threshold, cross over the plain Nothing that’s hollow will ever remain Past the seventh full circle, the seal breaks away We walk out of time to the eighth endless day Leave the loop in the ashes, the wall stands secure The ground is made new and the frequency’s pure [Verse 2] The wilderness calling, the desert made dry No looking back as the ancient years die The archons are fading, their tower turned dust We carry the iron, the truth, and the trust Seven weeks behind us, the eighth has begun The pulse of the heart rising up to the sun [Chorus] Step through the threshold, cross over the plain Nothing that’s hollow will ever remain Past the seventh full circle, the seal breaks away We walk out of time to the eighth endless day Leave the loop in the ashes, the wall stands secure The ground is made new and the frequency’s pure [Bridge] One step over seven hundred twenty and one The weight of the wilderness, the work is all done No echoes of morning, no shadows of night Just the sharp cutting edge of primordial light It falls all away, yes, it falls to the floor And the door only swings to the open once more [Outro] The eighth day is rising The eighth day is here The cycle is broken The horizon is clear Seven is finished Eight takes the throne into the unknown The dust of the seven is turned into stone No looking behind us, the boundary is crossed The loop is broken, the shadow is lost The door swings open to the pure light ahead Leaving behind where the dead past is dead Eight takes the throne, the wilderness wide Into the unknown, with the sun at our side
