lyrics

If you've been walking in the shadow's rest
If you believe you've somehow passed the test
The counterfeit says to drink the wine
As crumbs of corpus Christi feed the mice
You'll burn, confession
Hell fire and brimstone

Take my hand let's walk on the tombs of the ancients
Let me gently take that tear from your eye
Profane geometry lights up the sky

A single drop of rain falls on dry ground
All the believers have all fled this town
All that remains inside this cruciform
Sinful reflections of old days long gone
Profane, a stain
Of the ancient days

Take my hand let's dance on the tombs of the ancients
Let me gently wipe that tear from your eye
Profane geometry burns up the sky

It begins

Thunder rumbles over thirsty wasteland
Dry dust quickly turn to mud
Empty streets have become inundated
Overtaken by the flood
It's time

Polluted waters dissolve everything
Purifying mortal sins
Water water water everywhere
Not a single drop to drink
Goodbye

Mercy extended to survivors, everyone
Is looking down on what was once their little town
So astounded
The steeple disappears into the blackened water
Never to be seen again
