"A Thousand Years" lyrics

For a thousand years
I've been watching you (From the grave)
A million nights
Spent sifting through the gloom (End of days)
But time means nothing
Mere bitter alchemy
That turns to dust the reign
Of each and every king

For a thousand years
I've been watching you (From the grave)

A black angel, I am immortal
The death of your sons
The blood in your waters
I am immortal

This shadow of a world
Now falling into night
Blot out the sun
As darkness spreads across the sky
This mortal coil
Slips into savagery
Your final breath:
The wind beneath my beating wings

For a thousand years
I've been watching you (From the grave)

A black angel, I am immortal
The death of your sons
The blood in your waters
I am immortal

I am immortal
I am immortal

So unleash the dogs of war
To fill my crimson glass
Drink deep from bloody shores
Dominion and collapse

Accelerate the chaos
My hunger ever growing
Eternal appetite
Your end is now approaching
A walking nightmare
The bloody feast of warfare
Now cast aside the lie of restraint
And take your place in the ground

A black angel, I am immortal
The death of your sons
The blood in your waters
I am immortal

I am immortal
I am immortal
