Sculpting the pillars of a castle
Where wanderers lose themselves
Scratching the dust of the earth
To extract minerals and matter
Gold and diamonds turning sands into ornaments
Building a shrine upon vanishing sands
Resting on empty shells
Eroded and dormant
Sculpting the pillars
Stalagmites pierce the ground and drain the soil
Until shining objects breathe faith into avarice
Sinking enclaves below our riches
Bleeding the earth to erosion
Cover these walls with skin
Lavishly absorbing the sands
So that the jewels be forged
Out of roots despoiled
Cover these walls with skin
Lavishly absorbing the sands
From our roots disavowed
Roaming through the maze
Where corridors bend and deflect
Tilting over frail foundations
Eating themselves to void
Une arche pour les dรฉvots
Dont les fondations s'effritent
Ne laissant que texture rugueuse
Encombrant la refonte
S'emparer du charme pour tout condamner
ย
Scratching the golden marrow
Despite destructive harvests
Despite dearth, sculpting on
And the sands keep flowing
ย
Cracking the pillars
Guts eroded and bones fractured
Gorged with gravel
Reclaimed from the lands they rest upon
May we restore what has shattered
Despite destructive harvests
The sands keep flowing
Scratching the golden marrow
Such voracity is boundless
Robbed from their colors
The crops turn to stone
And feed the designs
Which enslave the masses
Engulfed in adornments
Chasing extinct honors
In unfurling walls
Miners by the thousands
And none to atone
Minus the defilers
Hidden in the black crests
Of the frame vapidly devised
By hands buried in clay
The shrine once built
A castle deformed
Cast in soiled organs
That once salted the waters
