Lyrics for Under the Weight of a Blackened Sky

As pillars decay Under the weight of a blackened sky This palace built upon Lies on prophets winces from within And I, weary and forlorn, look towards Winter's white veil That falls upon hallowed ground Is one life not enough? Is one death not enough? Is one life not enough? Is one death not enough? Is one life not enough? Is one death not enough? Is one life not enough? Is one death not enough? For when my head meets stone From my blood will rise a serpent That will take its rightful place As the deity upon the pedestal Is one life not enough? Is one death not enough? Is one life not enough? Is one death not enough? Winter's white veil falls upon hallowed ground And by dawn my head will rest just under the rusted blade The deity upon the pedestal The deity upon the pedestal
