MANDROID ECHOSTAR LYRICS

1. A Death Marked Dream

All we love,
we have thrown them to the wolves.
Oh child, we've cast you to fall into cursed hands.
We fall through the sky,
to find our graves.

2. Ancient Arrows

I've seen your arrows pierce the city streets,
and the first to throw their stone
is the first to hang from the tallest of trees.
Oh, I've seen you bear your teeth,
with a spear through your heart
from an ancient affair of deceit,
a nightmare lingering inside
inside of a death marked dream.

I walk the paths of this kingdom,
searching for my love.
I call her name
to the moon and the sun with a
hopeful prayer on my tongue.

Oh, bound in the vows of heartless men
to be claimed like the spoils of a voyage cascaded in sin.
Our children cannot hide another year (Oh no!)
The faceless walls of a citadel
are a prison I've learned to fear.

I walk the paths of this kingdom,
searching for my love.
I call her name
to the moon and the sun with a
hopeful prayer on my tongue.

Read these palms that I might see light of dawn.

In my dreaming I see her face,
she wears a veil that shrouds her gaze.
She speaks of the love and horror
that await me when I wake.
(Wah!)
We walk in a path to see
the light of a lover's dream.
The fortunes of fear call to find us all.
Now the stars in the sky concede
to write our destiny,
a hand to hold us all,
and send us off to sleep.

3. Haunted Vows

Look to the moon, the
tears in his eyes seem to say that our time's coming soon.
What a tragic end
to a story that barely began.
We will burn it down,
burn the fortress that stands in our way.
We will burn it down,
take the oldest of wars to the grave.

What cruel fate forged death and love?
We didn't ask for the blood,
but this is the battle we chose.
The morning light arose through the trees,
in my harrowed dreams.
See this through, a never ending scene.

Take heart and seize the day,
this is the life you're born to lead.
Speak now a wishful vow, irradiate the sea.
In the waves, I will wait.
You don't have to drift away.
I'll bring you back, I'll bring you back,
from midnight hands we will escape.

4. To The Wolves

I'm fighting hard for life,
oh my kin, my friend.
Cast away the blade of haunted times,
take the path to light.
So this is, this is the world
of our fathers' making.
Good intentions now refused,
now refused.

This is not what I foresaw,
all my life unravelling
in tragedies and tombs.
This is not what I foresaw,
all my love irradiating
like an open wound.

Hold my ever aching limbs,
wandering in death.
Arise and we'll walk the path of gods,
so tonight let's cut the rope that hangs your ghost.

Oh, we've got a crisis
on our bloody hands,
but this is what we want
and with a haunted love comes sacrifice.
Looks like we've got a crisis,
slipping through like shaking sand,
this is the night we lie
awake embraced in lovers' hands.

Cast across the land.

So this is love, for the first and last.
Oh, the death marked dream
becomes the real.

Oh God, I wish
this night would go on like this forever.
These hands have seen love a thousand times,
but never like this, never like this.
All I've ever seen
the darkest days and the lightest dreams,
fade away tonight.

5. The Sleeper

So you see through my deception,
found your way through the sand of the storm.
Marching on through this barren wasteland,
to the foot of terror's door.

Feel the lions gnashing at your legs,
while your lover dies from the poison of the snake.

We are hopeless now,
you won't find a way out,
you are bound in my eyes.

We must find our way out
from this godforsaken hell,
back to the order,
back to the structure,
back to sleep.
Oh this desolation breaking us must be refused,
take to flight.
Back to the order,
back to the structure,
back to life.

Feel the lions gnashing at your legs,
while your lover dies from the poison of the snake.

We are hopeless now,
you won't find a way out,
you are bound in my eyes.

So far beyond the sun,
desperate to return.
We rise above the battlefields
and feel our bodies burn.
With your hand upon my lips,
I speak now through my eyes,
you can see the worst in me now.
This is our goodbye.

So here we stand,
build our lives on the graves of the innocent.
Here we are,
chained to the gallow,
slaves to the desperate.
So here we stand alone.

6. Ethereal Dawn

Fighting for a thousand years,
we forget the right.
Deep inside, a war waged over time.
(Oh!)
Weak men sigh in the rising tides,
drown this goddamn garden.
Promises will break,
in a promising display,
we will prove our love amidst the darkest nights.
We won't fade away, we won't fade away,
we will take to flight.

Don't look down my love,
tragedy strikes at the heart.

Tonight, we fall
into the hands of gods.
Out of the wilderness,
we're trying so desperately,
trying to find our way.

Feathers fray and shake,
chills me to the bone.
Shadow shuts the gate,
lock us up alone.
We feel this ancient pain,
heartache like splinters that swim through my veins.
Won't you hear my heartbeat battle cry,
shouting, curse at the sky.

So sing harmony
to the dark clouds.
Raining tremulous rivers in spite of the sun.
See our fire
light a burning effigy
of cursed guardians and captors,
crowned with ash.

Tonight, we fall
into the hands of gods.
Out of the wilderness,
we're trying so desperately,
trying to find our way.

7. Citadels

Stand to dig the graves of lovers,
to steal the wind from their sails,
bury the corpse.

Fill this cavern with the screaming of the damned.
The whisper of gods in her eyes,
conquer the soul.

The fire burned so bright,
but light has left their eyes.

Our children brave a world of woe alone,
they're braving the tempest to still our trembling hands.
Broken bones, consumed by the fire never ending.
For our children trapped in stone,
we will devastate the throne.

Setting the fire,
burning the garden.
Writhing with death,
growing so tall.
All hearts have been awakened.
Raise up the dead,
welcome them home.

All we love, we have thrown to the jaws of a tragic consequence,
stole their lives just like the animals we have become.
We were so naive, to take the dream behind their eyes
and give them back as cursed memories.
To the wolves, we've cast them in the burial of love and misery.
