Ashes Remain - Blaze of Perdition

Beneath, between, within, beyond — Nothing

No more truths to reveal

No revelations to proclaim

No men to bestow them upon

And only ashes remains

When nothing survives to feed the fire

And the fire begins to feed itself

Self proclaimed divinity

Delusion of grandeur

Self inflicted lunacy

Driven by the urge to become

More than one can be

More than one can aspire to be

Only ashes remain

When nothing survives to feed the fire

Only ashes remain

And embers wane

On a pile of dust

Beware, the ones who play with fire

It shall burn to the ground

Everything you claim to know

Everything you hold dear

Leaving you naked and weak

Fragile as newborn child

Across the barren lands of decrepit mind

Serpent`s crawling through the cracks

Through the dirt and dried blood

Through the fractured spine

Nodes of power shattered

Man`s sanctity, all dignity

The lunacy of man — defiled

Eternally astray, wandering with folded eyes

Across the wasteland they`ve become

In search for paradise

They will never find a way

They will never become

What they yearn to be

All sanctity, all dignity

The lunacy of man — defiled

Across the barren lands of decrepit mind

Serpent`s crawling through the cracks

In the darkest of our thoughts

Through the fractured spine

It travels on and on

Beneath, between, within, beyond

Through the nodes of power

Beyond our reach

Through the broken conscious

To entwine

To feed the blaze, to feed itself

To feed the blaze

Until only ashes remain

Come and play with fire

And burn to the ground

Everything you thnk you know

Everything you hold close to your heart

Where it hurts the most
