Breathe Deep The AshRising through the tidesBeating at the heart of the wicked ones Arms stretched forth, bearing us toward Fortune and reward A faceless soul we all know called fear Fear robs your voice It takes away your choice And leads us to a place with nothing but faces And people just like us Hopeless and soulless No guidance, no conscience Just lifeless, worthless shells Writhing, Bleeding and dying It’s happened: the decent to black Take nothing…Attack! Breathe deep the ash Blisters lungs and makes us delirious For some it shows weakness Back then we were promised transcendence The end will not come soon Instead it makes us look like fools Tormented by relentless ghouls We’re force fed by this bodiless voice For us it drives us to grieve And then we try, we try not to bleed Is this the time, the time we hope to conquer Breathe back life into these force-fed memories Human kind nears its extinction No birth without execution Or error without correction No unforeseen retribution This world has now been purified Of the wretched human genome They are a plague unto themselves We stand by The time is right The time has come To bleed this night And bang this drum We’ll make this time a lasting one Until next time my mind is gone We have all been brought here by you Your voiceless words they precede you Seductive temptress, rational thought gone Blissfully ignorant to what’s going on… |
