Lamb of God Hourglass Lyrics

Privileged a chosen few
Blessed with our time in hell
Witness a divine vision the day we all fell still

Rapture of the dying age
A shattered hourglass
Wrath of the warring gods and soon this too shall pass

It's only getting worse
Not worth a moment's regret
Each dawn another curse
Every breath a twisting blade

What will be left behind in the ashes of the wake

An ill wind blows this way
The edge of the envelope burns
Forbearance and my vengance
Payment for your intent

Fear and death in the wings
In thrall of those fallen from grace
Petty is as petty does
Witness the mass disgrace

Fear and death in the wings, in thrall of those fallen from grace
Petty is as petty does, witness the mass disgrace.

God forbid you read the signs
Watch for meanings between the lines
Gehenna has now arrived
No hindsight for the blind

Your trust has been misplaced
Believed the lies told to your face
Became another casualty and
Now it's too late

You finally made it home
Draped in the flag that you fell for
And so it goes, the ashes of the wake

It's only getting worse
It's only getting worse
