Ruin Songtext
von Operus

Standing back and watching the flames
Light up the night
Centuries old
Behold how it crumbles away
Who′s to blame for the flames
Why can't I look away? Such a shame
Will you remember this day?

Millions of souls walked through these
Walls, but millions no more
Only tales of old will now hold

Reduced to ashes
Our history
Will we ever
Set it free?


How could this happen?
Forever gone
It′s catastrophic
The damage done

Thousands gathered on this day
Even more look on from far away
No one know the spark that had
Caused the flame

Gargoyles look on, fall from their posts
The devil wins today, see how he boasts

Ghosts from the past, dance through
The lightning, tears turn to vapor
Reality is frightening

History, will it be left to our memory
Or will we build once again
A new home?
