“Under the Ruins”
Verse 1
I sit and watch the tide flow – Under the Ruins –
And remember gleaming cities – filled with Truth –
Where shining castle walls – rise up after the fall –
To resurrect the heroes of my youth.
We’ve waited far too long here – Under the Ruins –
As leaders we believed in – faded away.
We fell asleep – but now it’s time to rise up and keep –
The covenant of hope for a brand new day.
Chorus
I see a New City – a fortress of chrome and steel –
A shiny New City – where faith and belief are still real.
Built to stand – a testament on the land –
‘Cause a New Moon is rising soon –
From Under the Ruins.
Verse 2
I grew weary and watched my life flow – Under the Ruins.
Addiction – my affliction – wasted my soul.
Painful medication – to graceful meditation –
An epiphany given to me – for free.
Chorus
Solo over Bridge Chords
Verse 3
We wait for The King to rise up – from Under the Ruins –
To lead us from what we are – to what we will be.
Repaint the moon and the stars – guide us home, wherever we are –
And lift our twisted souls – to transcendency.
Chorus
Chorus Out
I see a New City – A shiny New City –
From Under the Ruins – Under the Ruins…
