Mercury Skies - Netherbird

Now the lakes are still

And this night is forever dark

These lands been nourished

By those who bled away

The silver strings trace back into the past

The winds foretell the saga of

The pending end

And chaos commences

Under mercury skies

The calm before the raging storm

Black forms, black clouds

The dawn of the great deluge

Under mercury skies I face my final night

Alone

Split this world with lightning

Come fire, come hail

Make mountains crumble

Underneath your wings

The screaming howl of thunder

Aeons to bend

How it all began and how it all will end

The rise of age of man

Her twilight will descend

And the graceless hammers of time

The radiance before the storm unleashed

As we spectate our own departure

Behold the burning sails of faith

In the lightless night of forever

The onyxian dawn

Witnessing the dawn

When memories have faded into dust

And still our destination is unknown

I have witnessed the shifting of the tide

I was destined to venture on alone

Alone

My fear died with hope

This path is unknown

Like dust from a star

It settled a lifetime ago

The never ending road

Split this world with lightning

Come fire, come hail

Make mountains crumble

Underneath your wings

The screaming howl of thunder

Aeons to bend

How it all began and how it all will end

The rise of age of man

Oh, her twilight will descend

Under mercury skies

The calm before the raging storm

Black forms, black clouds

The dawn of the great deluge

Under mercury skies

The radiance before the fall

Black forms, black clouds

I face my final thought
