"The Ruiner" lyrics

"The Ruiner"

I can't remember
How did we end up in here
I can't remember

And now it seems that everything is wrong
I don't know where to begin
Who to blame for

They cannot feel anything
Nobody seems to understand
None can

They cannot see, they cannot think
The world is an endless wasteland
And they don't care

Rise above!
Rise above all their minds

We are hollowed
No ship will follow

I've seen the tomorrows
No time to borrow

But I won't take it anymore
Something has to be done
No more waiting, now

Just a twist of wind can make
The fire they've fed all this time
Burn them back

Rise against!
Rise against all their crimes

The river of despair
The millions in the cage
Will tear your structures down
Will break your walls with rage

With rage!

No gods! No kings!
