Untamed Land - The Heavenly Coil Lyrics

Ancient vengeance roused from sleep
A day of terror once foretold
Across the world havoc sweeps
Edges burn, center cannot hold

The wind carries our dying howls
To deaf idols long past care
Ripped apart by hatred's jowls
Caught in an endless nightmare

Violence consumed by its own force
Ever descending spirals
A prison carved from marble walls
The beast's rage cannot endure
Scorched away to unveil his grief
The hollow darkness inside of the world

Collapsed upon the hardened soil
His eyes are fixed upon the Sun
Reversed along the heavenly coil
Glimpsing a story not yet begun

Embracing her dying consort
Reaching out for a life fading away
Sorrow invades creation's support
And darkens her golden array

Her tears fall upon the barren land
Amid seeds planted in times unknown
Out from the ground upon we stand
Springs life which no man sowed
From ancient hills and paths the timeless waters run
Far past the gaze of men and steps of journeys done
Flowing down from mountain high to flood the fallow ground
Freeing spirits long forgotten, lost and shadow bound
That which dies continues in the living
All that grows shall wither and decay
The untold fallen still yet shall be forgiven
To await the morning of a new day
