Corniglia - Emerald Halls, Venetian Bulbs, Kingdom Falls Lyrics

For all your merchant gold
And canvas maps to gods intact
And other worldly bronze
Trinkets, lost worlds and artefacts

Libraries, untitled books
Not for human contact
All draped in emerald halls
You wont be breaking hold

The planets have all foretold
Appeased with sacrificial acts
Lighthouse built, Venetian bulbs
To charge the sun when it turns black

And walls a thousand tall
Will withstand any attack
Your druids have all been told
You wont be breaking hold

As you watch your kingdom fall
As you watch your kingdom fall

For your specimens on walls
And jars of undefined substance
You clearly read the stars
But they didn't answer back

And through your mountain sprawls
Of dyed fabrics and sheepskin hats
You feel the winters cold
You feel it taking hold

As you watch your kingdom fall
As you watch your kingdom fall
