"Pripyat"

Pripyat

There's silence in the air
There's silence in the ground
A presence moving through the rivers in the moonlight
Desolation all around
The wind blows through abandoned buildings
Photos scattered on the floors
Possessions of a vanished population
Safe haven for my soul

I hate to watch you destroy yourself
I can't leave you here on your own
It's the strangest thing I've ever felt
All alone in the dead zone
Nature is now reclaiming
Secrets time will never tell
I listen to the deafening silence
In the beautiful lost citadel

In the land of wolves
The horses run free
In the cemetery of the future
That's where I want to be
I'm running from the world
In the falling black rain
Monuments of the old regime
Are all that remain

I hate to watch you destroy yourself
I can't leave you here on your own
It's the strangest thing I've ever felt
All alone in the dead zone
Nature is now reclaiming
Secrets time will never tell
I listen to the deafening silence
In the beautiful lost citadel

Come find me my one
They stole the fire from the gods and they brought it down here to burn
The city of the future overthrown
Where we can be alone

I hate to watch you destroy yourself
I can't leave you here on your own
It's the strangest thing I've ever felt
All alone in the dead zone
I hate to watch you destroy yourself
I can't leave you here on your own
It's the strangest thing I've ever felt
All alone in the dead zone
Nature is now reclaiming
Secrets time will never tell
I listen to the deafening silence
In the beautiful lost citadel
The beautiful lost citadel
