Lyrics Pain Of Salvation

Pain Of Salvation

Iter Impius

I woke up today

Expecting to find all that I sought

And climb the mountains of the life I bought

Finally I'm at the top of every hierarchy

Unfortunately there is no one left

But me

I woke up today

To a world that's ground to dust, dirt and stone

I'm the king upon this withering throne

I ruled every forest, every mountain, every sea

Now there're but ruins left to rule for me

And ? you see, it beckons me;

Life turned its back on us

How could you just agree?

? how? I just don't see ?

I woke up today

To a world devoid of forests and trees

Drained of every ocean, every sea

Just like a useless brick upon the shore

The morning after the storm

That swept the bridge away

Relentless tide

No anger

Just this relentless time

That calls us all on

But ?

I'm never crossing that line

Leaving this world behind

I will stay on my own

On this bloodstained throne

I rule the ruins and wrecks

And the dust, dirt and stone

I rule rage rod and rattling of bones

I am on my own

I am all alone

Everything is gone

Stuck forever here

Already cold

I'm never crossing that line

Leaving this world behind

I will stay on my own

On this bloodstained throne ?

I'm never crossing that line

Leaving this world behind

I will stay on my own

On this bloodstained throne

I rule the ruins and wrecks

And the dirt and the dust and the stone

I'm the ruler of rage rod and rust

And the rattling of bones

Ruler of ruin

I rule the ruins
