Turn to Dust
Set in a post-apocalyptic landscape, this progressive metal song captures a state of being: wandering through emptiness, a barren soul haunted by memories and nightmares that will never cease to exist.
Hollowed eyes & barren soul
A heavy toll
Bones lying on the ground
Grains of sand
Like the call of an ancient curse
Running through your veins
Hollowed eyes & barren soul
of a former self
What do you hear at night
Only nightmares
Or your past regrets
What do you hear at night
What do you hear at night
Only nightmares
Or your past regrets
What do you hear at night
Remnants of a battlefield
Reflection of the times
Broken structures revealed
Iron carcass like chimes
Towers of oblivion concealed
No memories of the crimes
Decay and disease
Cities of dust, fortress of lies
What do you hear at night
Only nightmares
Or your past regrets
What do you hear at night
What do you hear at night
Only nightmares
Or your past regrets
What do you hear at night
Step by step you walk on
Eyes on the ground
Step by step you follow
The thread of the drowned
Step by step you walk on
Step by step
Step by step
Step by step
(Turn to dust)
(Turn to dust)
(Turn to dust)
Step by step you walk on
Step by step you follow
Step by step by step
You follow
