River of Stone

Those who first see the light
Are the ones extinguishing
If blood should reign and rivers boil
Feel the earth beneath burning

Where do you look now for knowing
That some great fall looms?
Crucible has been cast
This is the way that cannot last

Iron snakes, they crawl the dirt
Caught up in a spider's web
Rivers turn to stone again
And the seas are black and dead

No shelter for evil
In time you'll find another way
When you're dealing with the devils
To who or what you gonna pray?

Thunder came and struck them down
And the wheels kept right on rolling
Strange beasts are everywhere
And the earth they've overrun

Where do you look now for knowing
That some great fall looms?
Time of trials is unleashed
Artifice is overcome

Iron snakes, they crawl the dirt
Caught up in a spider's web
Rivers turn to stone again
And the seas are black and dead

No shelter for evil
In time you'll find another way
When you're dealing with those devils
To who or what you gonna pray?

In a swarm the crows are clamoring
What's happening?
In a storm that's outside gathering
There's hammering

Don't you want to know the sign?
Don't you want to know your time?
Long of tooth the shadows grow
By the stream where nothing flows

Thunder came and struck them down
And the wheels kept right on rolling
Crucible has been cast
This is the way that cannot last

Iron snakes, they crawl the dirt
Caught up in a spider's web
Rivers turn to stone again
Rivers turn to stone again
And the seas are black and dead

No shelter for evil
In time you'll find another way
When you're dealing with the devils
To who or what you gonna pray?
