Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My wells gone dry
This is something i feel the need to hide cause
This cost has crippled me and led to my demise
This is something I feel the need to hide
This cost cripples me titans time is nigh
I hear from voices calling from the other side
They want to take my life
They want to take my life
I pray for the divine
To witness me in light
This is the end
Like a worm on glass I will watch you die
Build shrines to fall
Your weight has dissolved
I offer you to lay your head
I know you long for rest
I am here for the maker of these lands
I have come to take his hands
So he can make no more
My youth I will restore
My youth I will restore
I held you up
You weighed too much
Your need to yearn
This is why you have to
Burn
I am Titan
I see red
I have the world in my hands
You all breached death
I will bleed your faith
Behold the Human race
I am Titan
I see red
My day will finally come for me to lay to rest
