Lyrics Mastodon – Chimes At Midnight
Text:
I saw the mountain crumble down
I saw colossus in flames.
I heard the ocean draining
Nothing that I could ever tame.
Off with my head, come down the line
I have the right to decide.
I’ll bring this light, as is the sky
Altered minds they criticize.
Unrest within your flesh
How can we stop this pollution?
Altering trouble, you cannot fix
Envy of others never makes me rich.
All my heroes, they’re all dead
As I remain here inside my
We have heard the chimes at midnight.
Into the void I go.
Will I ever see your face again
Or will black be all I know
Arriving inside
Our hearts alive
And the darkness here is grim
But it found us, surrounded.
Lead me deep into the canyon
You put your guidance in the wrong hands.
Feet ungrounded, giving your best
Now take your gold into silence.
You take a stand, bracing yourself
For this cold is never ending.
We have heard the chimes at midnight.
Into the void I go.
Or will black be all I know
Arriving inside
Our hearts alive
