lyrics

Have you ever heard the theory of ruins?
A design for more than life, extending past the fall
Gratefully crumbling into legend
What’s left behind never-ending

I have seen the burden laid on the human race
Everything is beautiful when considered in its prime
Eternity’s placed into our human hearts
No-one can fathom the path to the end of time

When I’m taken by the flames
What will I leave behind?
How many souls will I have touched?
That’s what stands the test of time

The theory of ruins
The theory of ruins

The days of kings have long since ended
The heart that fed besides a broken mocking hand
Look upon my works you mighty and despair
Two legs of stone standing in the sand

When I’m taken by the flames
What will I leave behind?
How many souls will I have touched?
That’s what stands the test of time

The theory of ruins
The theory of ruins
