I woke up today
Expecting to find all that I sought
And climb the mountains of the life I bought
Finally I´m at the top of every hierarchy
Unfortunately there is no one left
But me

I woke up today
To a world that´s ground to dust, dirt and stone
I´m the king upon this withering throne
I ruled every forest, every mountain, every sea
Now there´re but ruins left to rule for me
And... you see, it beckons me;
Life turned its back on us
How could you just agree?
...how? I just don´t see...

I woke up today
To a world devoid of forests and trees
Drained of every ocean, every sea
Just like a useless brick upon the shore
The morning after the storm
That swept the bridge away
Relentless tide
No anger
Just this relentless time
That calls us all on
But...

I´m never crossing that line
Leaving this world behind
I will stay on my own
On this bloodstained throne
I rule the ruins and wrecks
And the dust, dirt and stone
I rule rage rod and rattling of bones

I am on my own
I am all alone
Everything is gone
Stuck forever here
Already cold

I´m never crossing that line
Leaving this world behind
I will stay on my own
On this bloodstained throne...

I´m never crossing that line
Leaving this world behind
I will stay on my own
On this bloodstained throne
I rule the ruins and wrecks
And the dirt and the dust and the stone
I´m the ruler of rage rod and rust
And the rattling of bones
Ruler of ruin
I rule the ruins
