lyrics

Cold Bones

From the age of Noah and the greatest flood
We have been sent to march towards the land of Nod
Only once you answered the call
And now you only drag cold bones

We have crossed the river without staring back
At the grace we were leaving to follow the wolf pack
So, you are doomed to roam
And you know to whom you own

Cold bones, they gather at the East of Eden
Where the dawn lingers and broken souls lie together
Sharp tongues we’ve fed with hate and plagues
And so, few words were left upon your wretched

Cold bones
With devotion we’ve bent
To idols, altars and dark thrones
Cold bones

Old bones, they wander at the edge of desert
Where the sun points to the horizon but there’s no haven
Warm veins, faint hearts we have oppressed
With the last stone that the hand of Cain had cast

“As when one plows and breaks up the soil
So our bones have been scattered at the mouth of the grave."
Psalm 141:7
