[Lyric] Towers (DVNE)

March forth through ghost cities
Enforced edification
The river of exiles deserts the ashes
Leaves lifeless debris

A vista of footprints spread before us
A pilgrimage of indentured spirits
We cling to the promise of gifts we shall never receive
For the unborn

In dust, in blood
Colossus stones birthed
Generations of labour ignite
Distant ray of light

Gold forged and gleaming
Ascending
We dig out mountains to the sky
Flourishing

From quarriеs of serpentine
Tinos' pillars arisе
Foundations of greater times
Symbol of our might
An undertaking for my kin
We build castles to the sky
Flourishing

Brick by stone by bold libation
Ziggurats
Gilted ossuary tolling
Grand sepulcher

Lifted earth
Azure conquered
Enlighten, honour

As towers reach up to the stars
Shadows lengthen into the light
Eclipse of noble edifice
Penumbral healing of our scars
