sun god Lyrics

Esmerelda dreams of a serpent wreathed in flame

A voice like thunder calls to her

You are the one the gods have named

Esmerelda dreams of a castle in the sky

Streets of gold under a vast all-seeing eye

Tentacles writhing out of the deep

These things just won't let a body sleep

In the moment between the look and the leap

She sees the secrets that they keep

Your demons breaking down the door

Like El Dorado and before

And all the dead conquistadors

Forevermore

Sun god waiting in the wings

Conspiring and pulling strings

Was it he who shaped your destiny?

Stuffed you fat with lies

Such a petty little deity

Such a sad and trifling design

Esmerelda dreams she is flying at great height

While far below black waters flow

Through blacker deeper night

Predators battening on the weak

Intangible the thing they seek

The rising tide shall crush the meek

And they'll see the truth she could not speak

A prophecy a coming storm

That even angels can't ignore

If she can close the corridor

He'll lose the war

Sun god ruin everything

Laugh at all the pieces shattering

Only he could stage this travesty

And depict it as divine

Only she will know what could have been

Had they broken through from the other side
