Echoes In The Ruins Lyrics

The eyes of god are borrowed
Desecrated by unworthy hands
Always longing; ever watching

Through the minds of the undead

We call ourselves victims
Yet we built this disease
Feeding the virus that kills us as we
Please won't you save us
Can nothing be done
Fearful are we
The consequence of a curse undone

How loud can a soul express its final fucking death wish
Stand aside and let this blade strike true
How loud can a god confess its only fucking human
Immortality is a myth; yet still we persist

Nightmares awaken me
As my breath begins to fade
I feel my mistakes
Bleeding through me
Will I stay awake
Through all this madness
I'll sleep my life away
In this manufactured dream

Forge the fire
From the ashes of defeat
It's burning brighter with every single word I speak

The scarlet webbing glistening
Shining in the distant sun
Igniting at the very touch
As we wait for morning's dawn
I hear the echoes
Reverberating through the caverns

Losing sight of the distant vision
We cannot face ourselves
Blinded by our own ambitions
We cannot save ourselves
I've lost sight of our only mission
We cannot face ourselves
Protect the world of the living
We cannot save ourselves

Another turning point in this road
Another path that I must walk alone
With no one left to guide me
How will you find me

Feeding
The virus that kills us all
The violet sending; ever drifting
Glowing in the distant sun
Igniting at the very touch
As we wait for twilight's dawn
I hear the echoes
Reverberating through the caverns

Losing sight of the distant vision
We cannot face ourselves
Blinded by our own ambitions
We cannot save ourselves
I've lost sight of our only mission
We cannot face ourselves
Protect the world of the living
We cannot save ourselves
