In crimson halls the silk rivers flow
Where jade thrones gleam in a golden glow
A kingdom built on a fragile show
Whispering tales of the long ago
A whisper in the garden a crack in the stone
The Eden we built is losing its throne
The chosen one dreams but the pain starts to grow
A shadow is rising too long too slow
House of cards in jade crashing down
(The crimson tide has run out of the town)
House of cards in jade broken now
(The sacred blood has lost its vow)
A whisper in the garden a crack in the stone
The Eden we built is losing its throne
The chosen one dreams but the pain starts to grow
A shadow is rising too long too slow
House of cards in jade crashing down
(The crimson tide has run out of the town)
House of cards in jade broken now
(The sacred blood has lost its vow)
A maiden weeps for the petals that fall
Her sorrow a sacrifice answering the call
The stone in his hand feels the ultimate chill
A kingdom of dust standing perfectly still
House of cards in jade crashing down
(The crimson tide has run out of the town)
House of cards in jade broken now
(The sacred blood has lost its vow)
White snow on the ground not a single sound
Just echoes of a name fading in the rain
All gone all gone
