Fault Line

OUT OF THE SEARING SKY WITH CINDERS OF RAIN
I FELL IN DARKNESS AGAIN

WE HEEDED THE SIGNS PORTENDING DEMISE
YOU DENIED AS OCEANS ARISE

INDIFFERENT TO CRIES
WHEN THE PRICES REMAIN
FEARS YOU DERIDE IN DISDAIN

YOUR CRIME 
DEPLETING A WORLD OUT OF TIME

FACING THE WIND
REJECTING THE LIES
WITH FEET TO THE FIRE
SHELTER BLISTERING EYES

SHATTER DECREES
RESIST AND RESIGN
DEFEAT AND DEFY
ON THE FAULT LINE

YOU SCATTERED DISEASE, YOU WITHERED THE VINE
CONTRIVED THIS AVARICE SHRINE

INCINDIARY SEAS TO BLACKEN THE SKIES
THIS EARTH RECAPITALIZED

CONVERGING ALLIES
IN DECLINING ESTATE
TORCHES ALIGHT AT THE GATE

OVERRIDE
THIS WORLD IS NOT YOURS TO PRESIDE

FACING THE WIND
REJECTING THE LIES
WITH FEET TO THE FIRE
SHELTER BLISTERING EYES

SHATTER DECREES
RESIST AND RESIGN
DEFEAT AND DEFY
ON THE FAULT LINE
