Pain Of Salvation - Iter Impius Lyrics
(Obitus Diutinus)Music and arrangements by Fredrik HermanssonLyrics by Daniel GildenlöwMr. Money:I woke up todayExpecting to find all that I soughtAnd climb the mountains of the life I boughtFinally I'm at the top of every hierarchyUnfortunately there is no one leftBut meI woke up todayTo a world that's ground to dust, dirt and stoneI'm the king upon this withering throneI ruled every forest, every mountain, every seaNow there're but ruins left to rule for meAnd... you see, it beckons me;Life turned its back on usHow could you just agree?...how? I just don't see...I woke up todayTo a world devoid of forests and treesDrained of every ocean, every seaJust like a useless brick upon the shoreThe morning after the stormThat swept the bridge awayRelentless tideNo angerJust this relentless timeThat calls us all onBut...I'm never crossing that lineLeaving this world behindI will stay on my ownOn this bloodstained throneI rule the ruins and wrecksAnd the dust, dirt and stoneI rule rage rod and rattling of bonesI am on my ownI am all aloneEverything is goneStuck forever hereAlready coldI'm never crossing that lineLeaving this world behindI will stay on my ownOn this bloodstained throne...I'm never crossing that lineLeaving this world behindI will stay on my ownOn this bloodstained throneI rule the ruins and wrecksAnd the dirt and the dust and the stoneI'm the ruler of rage rod and rustAnd the rattling of bonesRuler of ruinI rule the ruins (ad lib)
