Ashen

I feel
The blood in my eyes
The million cries
They fought
To the death
For some fuckin' lie
How could I live
With the weight of the world
When so many die
How could I live
With this burden
Just when I feel
My life was turning
I’m gone
I’m gone
No light
No peace
But I move
Piece by piece
No fate
Carved in stone
I was made
To die alone
The feel-
To die alone
To die alone

I tread
On ashes of hope
Each step reminds me why
I once believed
There could be truth
How do I heal
Wounds carved deep within
When the scars
Refuse to fade
I’m torn
I’m gone
I'm gone
I walk through embered hallways of my past
Each scar a lesson carved in the flame
Yet in the hush before the sunrise
I taste the promise of my name
No light
No peace
But I move
Piece by piece
No fate
Carved in stone
I was made
To die alone
The feel-
To die alone
To die alone
