Death From Above Songtext
von Rome

We alone, sea-breakers, by desolate streams
World-forsakers, forever it seems
Built the world′s great cities, trampled kingdoms down
With a new song's magic conquered each and every crown

Was it that one man′s soul, cursed and broken
With that one light shining that does not depart
With that one word out, one last spoken
Brought heaven-wrought flame in another man's heart

There's only treason now (death from above)
There is no reason why (death from above)
There′s only treason now (death from above)
There is no reason why (death from above)

We crush them all with black prophesying
For each generation is a dream that is dying
And the sun′s so high, scorning hope of the morning
No future night goes the warning


Was that one man's soul cursed and broken
With that one light shining that does not depart
With that one word out, one last spoken
Brought heaven-wrought flame in another man′s heart

There's only treason now (death from above)
There is no reason why (death from above)
There′s only treason now (death from above)
There is no reason why (death from above)

There's only treason now (death from above)
There is no reason why (death from above)
There is no reason why (death from above)
There′s only treason now (death from above)

Was that one man's soul cursed and broken
With that one light shining that does not depart
With that one word out, one last spoken
Brought heaven-wrought flame in another man's heart

Was that one man′s soul cursed and broken
With that one light shining that does not depart
With that one word out, one last spoken
Brought heaven-wrought flame in another man′s heart


There's only treason now (death from above)
There is no reason why (death from above)
There′s only treason now (death from above)
There is no reason why (death from above)

There's only treason now (death from above)
There is no reason why (death from above)
There′s only treason now (death from above)
There is no reason why (death from above)
