Lyrics Through Inferno - The Wise Man's Fear

Through Inferno

Your cunning lies, your plotting eyes have made your treachery clear
You’re out of time, you wasted mine, the world gets quiet down here
A Cosmic Horror
In the shroud of man
Sinking down in pale waters
Monarch of the sand
But you
From womb to tomb
From Sun to moon
You perpetuate the Ancient Gloom
Father forgive me
For I’ve seen the truth
Weeping for their sons and what they’ve done
The Gods see their treason from above so now we’re
Falling through inferno
That fire breaks you down and sweeps you out
Time itself was all laid out
So now I cast myself into the clouds
Hear me
There’s one last thing I should say
Stand down
Don’t be caught in my way
The elder gods watch over every transgression and treason that came from their
sons
They turn stoney faces away, bitterly weeping for what they have done
Lashing about in the darkness to conquer their foes before they appear
The world gets quiet down here
Weeping for their sons and what they’ve done
The Gods see their treason from above and we’ve been
Weeping for the world that we have lost
The Gods saw their treason from above and we’ve been
Falling through inferno
That fire breaks you down and sweeps you out
Time itself was all laid out
So now I cast myself into the clouds
