A Castle on the Sea - Aviators

Modern times have never looked bleaker

And I’ve seen the darkest ages of life

Your death has come around to haunt you

And your madness has supplied the strife

Now I’ve broken all the rules I’ve written

Just to bring you to this cold fort between

Your ailing home and afterlife’s wither

A bastion only seen in your dreams

Through the black

I’ve seen you before

Knocking on a forbidden door

If you seek this madness in truth

Take my soul bestowed unto you

If you’ve got a way of survival

Possess the power to save your home

My failure as a god is total

As I watch over a land of bones

Now I’ve broken all the rules I’ve written

Just to bring you to this cold fort between

Your ailing home and afterlife’s wither

A bastion only seen in your dreams

Through the black

I’ve seen you before

Knocking on a forbidden door

If you seek this madness in truth

Take my soul bestowed unto you

Take a minute to think

You’ve been brought to the brink

Of existence to save the population

Floods and nuclear fire

Kept the times looking dire

Now’s the chance to redeem civilization

Yet a risk is attached

With this unholy pact

If forsaken I’ll come from the shadows

Let your madness be quelled

Live a legend to tell

Make the best of the end, and what follows

With no other choices

And quieting voices

I’d never expected

To be disconnected

To sacrifice all

To hold off the fall

For a world I don’t trust

We do what we must

So I’ll lend you my essence

For your rusted throne

And you could bring back the light

To the last home

Of civilization

Without which I’m gone

So take this godsoul to bring forth a new dawn

I’ll forgive the death you’ve earned

The cities you’ve burned

The lessons we’ve learned

For all that remains, just sacrifice me

I’ll hide away in a castle on the sea

So I’ll lend you my essence

For your rusted throne

And you could bring back the light

To the last home

Of civilization

Without which I’m gone

So take this godsoul to bring forth a new dawn

I’ll forgive the death you’ve earned

The cities you’ve burned

The lessons we’ve learned

For all that remains, just sacrifice me

I’ll hide away in a castle on the sea
