lyrics

I walk along these ashen shores
This tomb amongst the tides
To bear a light of salvation
To those who have died

This stench, infernal
Roaming scavengers scattered on the sands
I wretch, encircled
By bloated corpses I'm unable to withstand

I approach the pyre
And offer recompense

A flame
Ignites
This world
To life

Tumultuous waves erupt
Crashing on the shores of grey
Tortured souls come bursting forth
Towards a beacon that lights the way

A promise kept
A duty fulfilled

The world around me changes
To a view of my time
An era of senseless violence
When evil humans thrived

They mutilate each other
Blood spurts forth from their skin
Carcasses consumed by hatred
At a war's appalling end

I know why I was sent
I know where you have died
I beckon to call you forth
And guide you to back to life

The violent sea erupts
Into a brilliant wave
That comes to wash away
The blood of all mankind

A horde of spirits comes into view
Riding the waves of exaltation
To seek out what remains
Of their forgotten existence
