Building the Nations Songtext
von Oh, Sleeper

I found a pit to find yourself
I found a pit to find yourself
I found a pit to find yourself

Surrounded
Hopes, peace and daughters
Brightest eyes
You put your red and dearest
Upon their throats
Collecting blood like diamonds
From all
Behind this door we face a war

And it′s claiming more

Step back and take a look around you

'Cause we will destroy, rebuild
Plant the seeds, reclaim victory
On this day we will destroy, rebuild
Plant the seeds, reclaim victory
Through struggle we press on


Mark my words
You can′t find comfort
In the arms
The arms of constrictors
Constrictors

Lift back the sounds of content
And prepare for change
The door swings wide
And we draw inside
The cold, thin bones
Give off the light

Oh, I found your prints on a fleshy pulse
You made the waves that made my foot
And all the siren songs that ring on and on and on
I watched your fibers bring down the bishop
And beg the chains to leave me hit
Well, I brought all the archers
We lit all the fires
We've come to

Destroy, rebuild
Plant the seeds, reclaim victory
On this day we will destroy, rebuild
Plant the seeds, reclaim victory
Through struggle we press on


We are the army
Of the far from perfect
This is the call
The call to tear
To tear down
Rebuild this world
