[Verse 1]
It's the end of an era
It's the end of an old age
And I cannot find my breath at all
In a dream I could fly through
The echoes of past lives
As I watched each one succumb to death

[Chorus]
Tears for the dead life
Heart cry for the new day
As the old falls down
And the new rises up

[Verse 2]
Through time and space
Like trees of a forest
Growing through the remains of
Fallen kingdoms and empires
Bringing forth a new beauty
And a newfound potential
Yielding newfound tonguеs of sight
And soul and heart and mind

[Chorus]
Tears for the dеad life
Heart cry for the new day
As the old falls down
And the new rises up
[Verse 3]
To reclaim the name of
The power they gave away
Walking through the unknown
Filled with light and awe
And by the tears of our darkness
We shall water the flowers
Growing through the cracks of clay
Made stronger by the flames
Of loss and pain and time

[Chorus]
Tears for the dead life
Heart cry for the new day
As the old falls down
And the new rises up

[Refrain]
(As the old falls down)
And the new rises up
(As the old falls down)

(As the new rises up)
(And the old falls down)
(As the new rises up)
[Chorus]
Tears for the dead life
Fall away
Forever fall away
Falling tears
Fall like rain
Falling down
Fall away from me
Whoa, ohh, ohh

[Outro]
(As the new rises up)
(And the old falls down)
