Salt Cathedral

[Verse 1]
Black glass tower
Charred sky crown
Veins of ash
Running through the ground
Every step
Splinters
Sparks
Every vow
Turns teeth and bark

Rust-red river
Boils
Retreats
Leaves its bones
In jagged sheets
White scars spreading
Over rotted rock
Tongues of salt
Cut and lock

[Chorus]
Kneel at the salt cathedral
Where your burning idols fade
Drink from the cracked baptismal
Taste the grit of your betrayed
Hands full of dust
You’re praying
To a god already gone
Kneel at the salt cathedral
Watch your faith get overrun

[Verse 2]
Prayer flags torn
Into choking cords
Scriptures shredded
Into shapeless swarms
Every word
Was a loaded gun
Now the chamber’s
Facing you
Undone

Pillars crumble
Like a dying lung
Breath of doubt
Grinding every tongue
Wind claws through
What you thought would stand
Only patterns
Traced in sand

[Chorus]
Kneel at the salt cathedral
Where your burning idols fade
Drink from the cracked baptismal
Taste the grit of your betrayed
Hands full of dust
You’re praying
To a god already gone
Kneel at the salt cathedral
Watch your faith get overrun

[Bridge]
(Yeah)
Salt in the eyes
Salt in the wound
You built your throne
In a shrinking tomb
Desert of glass
Temple of rust
Your final creed
Is coughing dust (coughing dust)

[Chorus]
Kneel at the salt cathedral
Where your burning idols fade
Drink from the cracked baptismal
Taste the grit of your betrayed
Hands full of dust
Still praying
To a god already gone
Kneel at the salt cathedral
Let the wind erase your song
