lyrics

What were their names?
I’ve spent all my life away
Never making anything, never making any waves
Happy scenes seem so relevant
But they’re trivial unless something else is built

How many kings are now forgotten?
How many crusaders leaving all their kids and crops
Traveling across the world raping and plundering?
What were their names?

They thought they were better than the rest
The others ignorant, all just savages
Hateful dreams turned into nightmares
Masking up their fears of a bottomless abyss

How many gods are now forgotten?
How many holy men standing on their mountain tops
Yelling at the sky and hearing nothing?
What were their names?

How many kings are now forgotten?
How many gods are now forgotten?
Everything we are will be forgotten.
What were their names?

What were their names?
What were their names?
What were their names?
What were their names?
