Pain Of Salvation - Iter Impius lyrics
Martigena, son of Mars 
(Obitus Diutinus) 
Music and arrangements by Fredrik Hermansson 
Lyrics by Daniel Gildenlöw 
Mr. Money: 
I woke up today 
Expecting to find all that I sought 
And climb the mountains of the life I bought 
Finally I'm at the top of every hierarchy 
Unfortunately there is no one left 
But me 
I woke up today 
To a world that's ground to dust, dirt and stone 
I'm the king upon this withering throne 
I ruled every forest, every mountain, every sea 
Now there're but ruins left to rule for me 
And... you see, it beckons me; 
Life turned it's back on us 
How could you just agree? 
...how? I just don't see... 
I woke up today 
To a world devoid of forests and trees 
Drained of every ocean, every sea 
Just like a useless brick upon the shore 
The morning after the storm 
That swept the bridge away 
Relentless tide 
No anger 
Just this relentless time Pain Of Salvation - Iter Impius - http://motolyrics.com/pain-of-salvation/iter-impius-lyrics.html
That calls us all on 
But... 
I'm never crossing that line 
Leaving this world behind 
I will stay on my own 
On this withering throne 
I rule the ruins and wrecks 
And the dust, dirt and stone 
I rule rage rod and rattling of bones 
I am on my own 
I am all alone 
Everything is gone 
Stuck forever here 
Already cold 
I'm never crossing that line 
Leaving this world behind 
I will stay on my own 
On this bloodstained throne... 
I'm never crossing that line 
Leaving this world behind 
I will stay on my own 
On this bloodstained throne 
I rule the ruins and wrecks 
And the dirt and the dust and the stone 
I'm the ruler of rage rod and rust 
And the rattling of bones 
Ruler of ruin 
I rule the ruins (ad lib)
