Construction of Souls
We’re building a hall of remembrance <br/> A tower of frangible bones<br/> A guardian will stand by the entrance <br/> Defending the temple of clones<br/> <br/> Breathe in the smoke, extend all your hydraulic limbs <br/> Raise the stone upon the hill of dead hymns<br/> Glass shatter roses lie on the graves of our kings<br/> <br/> We atone for the sins of our masters <br/> By bringing the end of all gods Preventing another disaster<br/> United we’re never at odds<br/> <br/> Assemble the parts! Let progress for all lead the way! <br/> We’ll reach above the clouds one of these days<br/> <br/> On all sons and fathers as nameless as I<br/> I make you but one promise and then after it’s done <br/> I’ll die I’ll lay down my body to build an ark that flies<br/> The ashes of our ancestors are taken from paradise<br/> <br/> Let us begin <br/> Construction of souls<br/> <br/> I lay down my spine as a drawbridge <br/> A step on the way for my kind<br/> A death while you serve is to die rich <br/> A thought bringing peace to my mind<br/> <br/> Strike like a sledge, we’re making a carriage of chrome <br/> An arrow to break through the roof of this dome<br/> A voice of black gas is calling its kin to come home<br/> <br/> On all sons and fathers as nameless as I<br/> I make you but one promise and then after it’s done <br/> I’ll die I’ll lay down my body to build an ark that flies<br/> The ashes of our ancestors are taken from paradise<br/> <br/> Let us begin <br/> Construction of souls<br/> <br/> On all sons and fathers as nameless as I<br/> I make you but one promise and then after it’s done <br/> I’ll die I’ll lay down my body to build an ark that flies<br/> The ashes of our ancestors are taken from paradise<br/> <br/> Let us begin <br/> Construction of souls
