In This Master's Tale

I lived with the last of the silence

I gave away all my hope

I managed to turn my laughter

Into a wall made of stone

I left on a foggy morning

I reached my goal at night

Fires burning and hollow eyes

We have all made our silent goodbyes

In this heartless meaningless shelter

Below the fields of our spirited past

Cold as ice, and with wings of disaster

We'll make sure that our moment will last

We all knew it was a calling

And we thought we'd escaped the rain

Growing closer to our dark fate

In this master's tale

Water's rising as we desperately reach out for the sun

Deal is broken, and our souls have now moved on

If you ever cared for what you had, it's already gone

Leave it all behind

Pick up the pieces and run

One flew from the other side

Got caught in the cold

My son, this is war

Come and join the fold

Don't you ever look back

Put it all to rest

Take your chances, but that burden

Won't ever leave your chest

'Cause I see nothing but a deadly sign

Our shallows hearts in a well of wine

Setting our minds straight

Time to open the gates

We are the dead, short days ago

We lived, felt dawns

Saw sunsets glow

We are the keepers of wisdom below

Neither enemies, friends, or ghosts

Take up our quarrel with the foe

To you, from failing hands we throw

The torch be yours to hold it high

If you beak faith with us, you die

In this heartless meaningless shelter

Below the fields of our spirited past

Cold as ice, and with wings of disaster

We'll make sure that our moment will last

We all knew it was a calling

And we thought we'd escaped the rain

Growing closer to our dark fate

With this master's tale

Water's rising as we desperately reach out for the sun

Deal is broken, and our souls have now moved on

If you ever cared for what you had, it's already gone

Leave it all behind

Pick up the pieces and run

One flew from the other side

Got caught in the cold

My son, this is war

Come and join the fold

Don't you ever look back

Put it all to rest

Take your chances, but that burden

Won't ever leave your chest

'Cause I see nothing but a deadly sign

Our shallows hearts in a well of wine

Setting our minds straight

Time to open the gates

Uh

Oh, time to open the gates
