The Innocent

You held the pendant
Chain flows around your open hands
Faith in the water
Drifting between two motherlands

You said the skies
Were meant to open all at once
Eyes to the horror
Hearts beating loud as the guns

There are no more heroes, no borders, no gods
Just the wandering black sails of those lost in sand
The nameless keep flowing like salt in the sea
And the whole world grows silent, shouldn't it be?
Only the whistle of steel through the air
And the long vacant hollow of those who were there
The thread tells the story of all who have been
A lonely man stands always watching the sea

The deep has swallowed all my hope
Where all our eyes meet dread
A map of shattered memories
Drawn by trembling hands

The deep has swallowed all my pride
Where all our fights are held
A hollow light that flickers
Beyond the suffering

There are no more heroes, no borders, no gods
Just the wandering black sails of those lost in sand
The nameless keep flowing like salt in the sea
And the whole world grows silent, shouldn't it be?
Only the whistle of steel through the air
And the long vacant hollow of those who were there
The thread tells the story of all who have been
A lonely man stands always watching the sea
A lonely man stands always watching the sea

Yeah
