East of the Wall - Fool's Errand lyrics

As it all falls down, and everything burns, the meek have their day It seems you've found your way down Slip into this void. This longing brought suffering We speak in bitter tongues A stone is the crux of a wall. Its burden lies in weight Lowly, we bask in omens, and dream of what reality was Beholden to a paradise broken, dream of what reality was Slowly, we bend so slowly As we descend the walls that seem so sloped call forth my way We bend so slowly. I won't stay or carve my name You were tied to the weight of this failure We sink in through reverie In quiet moments I prayed for this day In weaker moments I rued this day In desperation I gave way What would I do to be rid of this? Head down, back to wind, what would I do? Forget this weight This day was yours to take, heads down Backs to the wind, beating back the deluge endlessly We need something to hold as the light fades away
