Echoes

And another storm comes crashing

Through the air so filled with ashes

And the doors are splintered remnants

Of a time that soon will fall

Here I lie amongst the ruins

Watching now a lifetime buried

Who will care that footsteps fell here

Who will haunt the emptied halls

Never cast your eyes away

Peer into the sky and follow

Never cast your eyes away

Whisper to the sky one final prayer

And another stone comes crashing

To the floor of scattered glass

As a blade shines red with anger

Through the sinking hope tonight

With a flag held close against me

Her glory rests it's weary head

Soft upon my tired shoulder

Dreaming lore of brighter days

Never cast your eyes away

Peer into the sky and follow

Never cast your eyes away

Whisper to the sky one final prayer

Hold close to me and find your sleep

Time it moved so slowly

As if there were no end

Hold close to me in final sleep

Time will move so slowly

As if there were no more end now

Your name will echo still
