Lord Of The Lost - Ruins

They walked this withered wasteland The taste of ash in every breath A violent past forsaken The creeds did breed contempt Seeking grace and beauty in the wreckage Pure wisdom hides away in the decay The shadowed truth foretold the message The darkest heart can lead the right way Here in ruins life still grows Here in ruins, a blooming rose Here in ruins love remains We will rise again So don't let your downfall be destiny Don't blame the stars So don't let your downfall be destiny The moment is ours All monuments now remnants The grandiose reduced to dust Those sacred names abolished This future we must trust It is our duty to replenish Envisage life eclipsing death and fate From sallow youth to the decrepit The tarnished start to reason faith So don't let your downfall be destiny Don't blame the stars So don't let your downfall be destiny The moment is ours Here in ruins life still grows Here in ruins, a blooming rose Here in ruins love remains We will rise again Hope is here, so near Hope is here, a new life Hope is here, so near Hope is here, a new life So don't let your downfall be destiny Don't blame the stars So don't let your downfall be destiny The moment is ours I walk this withered wasteland A sense of purpose in each step Wherever this path takes us We'll tread with pure intent
