[Intro]

My head feels empty and I'm staring at an empty mirror

My anger surging, my pulse rising, there is nothing clearer

Life stripped away, hope stolen and we've all been cheated

The things I've learnt, they simply can not be repeated


[Pre-Chorus]

The thing you praise is fucking deceptive

His nerve is worthless and wretched

Clutching at glass

But losing my grip

The image of you begins to slip


[Chorus]

Life fading

From this sphere

Suffering

Soul imprint

Will not disappear

As the ashes lie still


[Post-Chorus]

Heart pulled out

From my chest

Struggling

I can't heal

Your God I detest


[Verse 1]

The sun won't rise and the shadows will fade (Shadows will fade)

The cracks stay young and your face doesn't crumble (Face doesn't crumble)

The ashes lie still

You endure alone

You wither in the soil and stone

The door can never be opened

The key left shredded and broken


[Verse 2]

A legacy that's guaranteed to flourish through time

Years left behind, we can't rewind, cut down inside of his prime

We're left looking through life with shattered eyes

I realize the body dies, a man I idolized


[Pre-Chorus]

The thing you praise is fucking deceptive

His nerve is worthless and wretched

Clutching at glass

But losing my grip

The image of you begins to slip

This disease is building up, you'll accept your own defeat

Unable to stand

Earth falls beneath your feet


[Chorus]

Life fading

From this sphere

Suffering

Soul imprint

Will not disappear

As the ashes lie still


[Post-Chorus]

Heart pulled out

From my chest

Struggling

I can't heal

Your God I detest


[Outro]

Agony

Breathless

Death will hold you now

My head bows down, I'm plagued with sorrow

I see no tomorrow

Memory (Memory, endless)

Endless

Life goes on, somehow

This loss won't break my will

No time to mourn as the ashes lie still
