Phantoms of the Mire

Reflections struggle to find hosting eyes From rippling waters Inundated soil Beneath heathered skies Are all that remain Was it you who said humanity Has a seat at the table of god? I took solace in those words Displayed them in my work Let them live without fear Rejection of the truth Here we are now Responsible for travesty Of a scale unknown O Now beware Of the Phantoms of the Mire Taking host You may claim That it's based in fiction Yet this was foretold Now beware Of the Phantoms of the Mire taking host You tell them it's a mirage But I have felt the ghost Living in a world drowned out In our own mistakes Massive waves overtake Everything we love Twisted metal, burning wood A barge of floating corpses This is what it takes to play God You will not interfere Now we must go Escaping with what little that we have left I'm sure that you're aware That these deadly waters can reanimate You'll see the waves that come from a drop Of pure Hatred Rising from the waves This is how The Legend comes to life O Now beware Of The Phantoms of the Mire O Now beware
