Anna Pest - Only Lyrics

Only when the noise stops
When the light breaks
When the waves still
When the earth sleeps

Only as the night falls silent
And the moonlight shines cold
And the dark trees speak
In wordless whispers of aeons past

Only when the sun has set forever
Has shined out its last
Wandered away through the cosmos in spite
To look upon us nevermore
Only when the last bird has sung
When the last flower has wilted
When the last leaf has fallen
When the last river has run dry

Only when every last drop of blood
That once coursed through your fragile veins
Paints this cursed earth
As a final crimson catharsis
A monolith to the agony of existence
And has dried beneath the dead air
Wasted away, along with everything else
That once drew breath

Only then will this world know peace
