Lyrics
[Intro]
[Acoustic guitar pattern]
[drum fill]
[Guitar virtuoso solo]
[Verse]
Short shadows grow underneath this glow (glow-oh!)
My eyes now wide witnessing the woe (woe-oh!)
[Break]
Fire in the heavens (Fire in the heavens)
Majestic descent (Majestic descent)
[drum solo]
[Verse]
Titan's fury scatters the stars in dusk (dusk-oh!)
Golden chariot crumbles into dust (dust-oh!)
[pause]
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh no (OH NO!)
Falling (DON'T GO!)
Breaking (OH NO!)
Chariots in flames
[drop]
[Chorus]
(Oh Apollo!) Apollo, why did you fail us all?
Unknown tears like rain fall
(Oh Apollo!) Apollo, could this be true, I wonder?
As this deafening silence thunders
The god descends and, oh, the sky breaks
Eagle’s mirrored wings, oh, torn from grace
(Oh Apollo!) Apollo, you've left us in shadow
History will burn in absent glow
[Post-Chorus]
When the sky fell
Apollo cried
When the sky fell
Giants died
[Acoustic guitar pattern]
[Bridge 1]
Visions fogging my mind (oo oo oo)
Stars falling behind
Chariots of flame grind (oo oo oo)
Truth's thread has unbind
[Acoustic guitar solo]
[Verse 2]
Golden rays and dying embers (embers-oh!)
In the haze, god remembers (members-oh!)
[pause]
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh no (OH NO!)
Falling (DON'T GO!)
Breaking (OH NO!)
Chariots in flames
[drop]
[Chorus]
(Oh Apollo!) Apollo, why did you fail us all?
Unknown tears like rain fall
(Oh Apollo!) Apollo, could this be true, I wonder?
As this deafening silence thunders
The god descends and, oh, the sky breaks
Eagle’s mirrored wings, oh, torn from grace
(Oh Apollo!) Apollo, you've left us in shadow
History will burn in absent glow
[Post-Chorus]
When the sky fell
Apollo cried
When the sky fell
Giants died
[Acoustic guitar pattern]
[Breakdown]
OH DID YOU SEE?
Apollo's flight, breaking through clouds
OH DID YOU SEE?
Descending night, burning gods drowned
[Guitar solo]
[Bridge 2]
All the stars did align (ah ah ah)
Starcrash undefined
Both myths intertwined (ah ah ah)
You were falling so divine
[Guitar solo 2]
[Synth solo]
[Verse 3]
Flashes glow bright as visions unfold (unfold-oh!)
Sky on fire's light as ancients foretold (foretold-oh!)
[pause]
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh no (OH NO!)
Falling (DON'T GO!)
Breaking (OH NO!)
Chariots in flames
[drop]
[Chorus]
(Oh Apollo!) Apollo, why did you fail us all?
Unknown tears like rain fall
(Oh Apollo!) Apollo, could this be true, I wonder?
As this deafening silence thunders
The god descends and, oh, the sky breaks
Eagle’s mirrored wings, oh, torn from grace
(Oh Apollo!) Apollo, you've left us in shadow
History will burn in absent glow
[Post-Chorus]
When the sky fell
Apollo cried
When the sky fell
Giants died
[Acoustic guitar pattern]
[Outro]
Oh! could you imagine?
Apollo's fall from sky
Oh! could you imagine?
AND WE NEVER ASKED WHY!
[End]
[Chorus]
(Oh Apollo!) Apollo, why did you fail us all?
Unknown tears like rain fall
(Oh Apollo!) Apollo, could this be true, I wonder?
As this deafening silence thunders
The god descends and, (oh!), the sky breaks
Eagle’s mirrored wings, (oh!), torn from grace
(Oh Apollo!) Apollo, you've left us in shadow
History will burn in absent glow
[Post-Chorus]
When the sky fell
Apollo cried
When the sky fell
Giants died
[Acoustic guitar pattern]
[Bridge 1]
Visions fogging my mind (oo oo oo)
Stars falling behind (can you see them?)
Chariots of flame grind (oo oo oo)
Truth's thread will unwind (can you mend them?)
[Break]
[Acoustic guitar solo]
[Verse 2]
Golden rays and dying embers (embers-oh!)
In the haze, god remembers (members-oh!)

Breaking (OH NO!)
Chariots in flames

You were falling so divine (can you awake?)
