As I crawl through dirt and mud
I'm sinking under
In a grave of life that was
I saw a light

I turned my back on everything
I searched for half-remembered dreams
Pulling me down with you
Above my head, they're circling
The vultures want what's left of me
I sacrificed it all and I will fight

Until the world goes cold
This battle's burned all that I've known
Until the world goes cold
Nothing will keep me from this throne, I'll fight
Until the world goes cold
Until the world goes cold

As I build my house of bones
You're sinking under
For all your sins, you will atone
I burned it down

I turned my back on everything
I searched for half-remembered dreams
Pulling me down with you
(I burned it down)
Above my head, they're circling
The vultures want what's left of me
I sacrificed it all and I will fight

Until the world goes cold
This battle's burned all that I've known
Until the world goes cold
Nothing will keep me from this throne, I'll fight
Until the world goes cold

This battle has burned all
I'll fight forevermore

Until the world goes cold
This battle's burned all that I've known
Until the world goes cold
This battle's burned all that I've known
Until the world goes cold
Nothing will keep me from this throne, I'll fight
Until the world goes cold
Until the world goes cold

Until the world goes cold

    My Interpretation

    I think this song is about someone who's fallen from grace, someone who once seemed to have it all. They now are living in a dark stage where their is little light and even less hope that they can foresee. They are seeking that light at the end of the tunnel but no longer can they find it. I think of someone like Chester Bennington (of Linkin Park) who committed last July, he seemed to have it all but still found he couldn't escape his own demoms and they eventually took him in the end sadly.
