lyrics

In a deserted city where the usurped now live
The sandy wind washed away their memories
My search for you began after the usurper banished me to this fallen place
All these buildings will fall on us one day

While I walk down these streets, I notice it
The buildings are filled with sand and gold
Treasures and puppets, sunken people
Shattered windows reflecting the sun to shine light upon the forgotten

Now I'm on top of a falling building to jump off and bury myself in the sands
Before I go I hear laughter in the distance
He has seen me and wants me to forget
You were the only one I fought him for

He appears before me, his long fingers touch me
He tries to suck every last memory of you out of my head, I try to fight him off
I take his mask off and see the true usurper
A puppet made of sand presents you to me
