sands of time - luminatus lyrics
i stand within what was once a golden city
now swept by wind, drowned in despair and pity
i wake the spirits that have lain so long in peace
rise with resentment, distorted and diseased
they’re flailing around me and at the veil they’re tearing
within this hourglass that seals the present from the past
the sands of time fall through the cracks (the sands of time)
the world that shines is turning black
with every stride they condemn my desecration
of what stood with pride, now left in desolation
each field and home, once filled with love and joy
becomes a tomb for future looters to destroy
the laughter of children all turns to tears of old men
now shattered spears and broken skulls are left to speak
the sands of time fall through the cracks, fall through the cracks (the sands of time)
the world that shines is turning black, is turning black
the present turns upon the past, upon the past (the sands of time)
a perfect bliss can never last, can never last
one day it all comes to this place
where the mighty walls have been defaced
what once stood proud is now erased, unknown
you’re still trying to find the relics
of an age that you embellished
buried in the sands of time now brick and bone
one day we all come to this place
where our memories have been defaced
the joys of times we once embraced
no longer known
the sands of time
no one can hold back the sands of time
the sands of time
no one can hold back the sands of time
the sands of time
no one can hold back the sands of time
the sands of time
no one can hold back the sands of time
the sands of time
no one can hold back the sands of time
