Pendant World Lyrics

These chains once of purest gold,
Have rusted away.
Like fibers of frail flesh,
Suspending the crushing weight,
Of this pendant world.
O, our heads hang low,
As all we've ever known,
All we've ever held,
All we've ever cherished flees,
As we part with sanctity.
How do you hoist this sullen burden?
Only you, on crippled limbs,
Could teach us to walk again.

Carried in pools of maroon,
To see us through,
All for the love of your own.

O, solemn guardian,
I sing in debt to you.
I sing in debt to you.
In debt...
To you...
