"Construction Of Souls" lyrics
"Construction Of Souls"
We're building a hall of remembrance
A tower of frangible bones
A guardian will stand by the entrance
Defending the temple of clones
Breathe in the smoke, extend all your hydraulic limbs
Raise the stone upon the hill of dead hymns
Glass shatter roses lie on the graves of our kings
We atone for the sins of our masters
By bringing the end of all gods
Preventing another disaster
United we're never at odds
Assemble the parts! Let progress for all lead the way!
We'll reach above the clouds one of these days
On all sons and fathers as nameless as I
I make you but one promise and then after it's done I'll die
I'll lay down my body to build an ark that flies
The ashes of our ancestors are taken from paradise
Let us begin
Construction of souls
I lay down my spine as a drawbridge
A step on the way for my kind
A death while you serve is to die rich
A thought bringing peace to my mind
Drink in the sludge, we're making a carriage of chrome
An arrow to break through the roof of this dome
A voice of black gas is calling its kin to come home
On all sons and fathers as nameless as I
I make you but one promise and then after it's done I'll die
I'll lay down my body to build an ark that flies
The ashes of our ancestors are taken from paradise
Let us begin
Construction of souls
On all sons and fathers as nameless as I
I make you but one promise and then after it's done I'll die
I'll lay down my body to build an ark that flies
The ashes of our ancestors are taken from paradise
Let us begin
Let us begin
Construction of souls

There's no way to know
