The World That Was by Temple of Void Lyrics

The sun, it burns my tired eyes
And shakes my core
As I ascend from a home
That exists no more
No pain
No fear
No war
No life
My sword
Battle-torn
Lie lifeless as I

Have the gods had enough?
Was all this for naught?

Now
Now gone are the moons of yesterday
And the hopes of tomorrow's sons

Will this nightmare finally end?
Or has it just begun?
What does the future hold?
Or will the future die with us as one?
Bodies pulled toward the vortex
As the light swallows us whole
Centuries of endless war
Destroyed in an incinerating flash

For in the end
The void takes it all away
Leaving behind but a memory of a
World that was
