Petrichor Lyrics

Blood of the Gods

Bathing in their demise

Ripped in half

You're nearly satisfied

I know it's too soon, you're too far away

Along the shoreline I walked in complete disarray

Touched the water to see my reflection erase

Among the thousands, why do I have to pray?

Like a puppeteer

Whispered in my ear

Couldn't get rid of all the threads

They won't disappear

Generations

Fear their own nations

The only prison is my fear of your patience

Burning my lungs

Inhaling the ashes

Encased by the embers

Patiently waiting for the storm to end the drought

After days without rain

I need to smell drying grass again

Promise me I can feel the sensation

Again and again and again

After days without rain

Accompanied with the pain

The sunlight shines on my broken skin

I give in, sing me your finest hymn

The trumpets sound

Witness the end

Herald a new dawn

For all it's worth

I witness the end

Of all the kingdoms you promised to bless

For all it's worth

I witness the end

Of all the landmarks gone up in flames

Sending forth all of your puppets

Blaming everyone else but yourself

This is the apocalypse

Before the storm there will be eternal drought

After days without rain

I need to smell drying grass again

Promise me I can feel the sensation

Again and again and again

After days without rain

Accompanied with the pain

The sunlight shines on my broken skin

I give in, sing me your finest hymn
