Necromancers

Ignorance watching from the tallest tower Observing all the lands as they grow in power The people staring up grow weaker every hour As short sighted selfishness prays it’s not devoured Reverence and promises will make them follow They’ll worship all their toys in the pain they swallow City gates forever guarded by the drowning hollow Nobody’s getting in so we can sit and wallow A protest under the moon in a dying streetlight Declaring that our power is giving up the good fight A man that never stood up to reflect our own might Declaring that our law is taking away our own sight For everything we’ve done and the things we’ve made you You dare to stand and speak as if we never loved you For everything that came from our sacrifice You dare to judge us now as if you were right For everything that came from our every backing You dare to rise against and say that we are lacking Statistics say we’re right and yet you still disturb us The dying words you breathe we’ll twist in to our purpose
