In the end of it all You built your castles in the sand Watch them crumble with the rising tide Empires washes away Leaving only betrayal Oh Washed away The hands will reclaim Again and again History repeats itself Washed away A clean slate Again and again History repeats itself There'll be no monument erected in your honour There'll be no memory of you There'll be no monument erected in your honour There'll be no memory of you Washed away The hands will reclaim Again and again History repeats itself Washed away A clean slate Again and again History repeats itself Trying to carve your name Into the sands of time Insistent that it will resist The persistent winds of change My rise Your fall Your just rotting bodies piled high Set them on fire Burn the infection Rotting bodies piled high Set them ablaze Permanence withers you will fade away Permanence withers you will fade away Permanence withers you will fade away Away Away Permanence withers you will fade away
