about

The first single on SYN{A}PSE's self titled EP released in August of 2011

lyrics

These deep cracks and fissures
They seem to speak to me
Monuments ripped apart
By sand and debris

Of kingdoms, once mighty
Now all that remains
Are dusty tombs and scriptures
All left to rot away

This city will crumble before me
The wind will howl and earth will shake
And all will gather before me
Their pride swallowed by decay
This city will crumble before me
Faces left tired and forlorn
Paralyzed and humbled by
The fury of the coming storm

Self-righteous power hungry
But we are not alone
What right do they have to be
Immortalized in stone
Defacing, Erasing
All that gave us birth
The sea will cleanse us all and
Return us to the dirt

This city will crumble before me
The wind will howl and earth will shake
And all will gather before me
Their pride swallowed by decay
This city will crumble before me
Faces left tired and forlorn
Paralyzed and humbled by
The fury of the coming storm
