Ashes of a Broken Mind

+ Show full styles

[0:00 - 0:35] [Intro] (A heavy, dark electric bassline walks slowly in a hollow space) (Clean electric guitar with cold chorus picking desolate minor chords) (Distant cymbal swells and slow, dragging snare hits) [0:35 - 1:20] [Verse 1] (Voix basse, monotone, brisée par la fatigue) I can feel the cracks expanding deep inside my head Thoughts of who I used to be are rotting in my bed Every memory I touch just turns to dust and stone Surrounded by eight billion people, totally alone My reflection is a stranger with a hollow stare I keep calling out for help to empty, freezing air [1:20 - 1:50] [Pre-Chorus] (La voix tremble, monte en pression, la guitare devient plus agressive) The walls are closing in, I cannot see the floor... I don't think I can take this pressure anymore... There’s nothing behind that broken door... [1:50 - 2:40] [Chorus] (Explosion brutale - Mur de guitares distordues, chant déchiré et désespéré) Walking through the ashes of a broken mind! Leaving every piece of what was left behind! Nothing here is sacred, nothing here is real! I just want to stop the way I fucking feel! (Voice cracks intensely on the final line, lingering in feedback) [2:40 - 3:20] [Verse 2] (Retour à la basse lourde et au picking glacial, voix à bout de souffle) Mental health is just a phrase they print upon a page While I’m trapped inside a silent, self-inflicted cage Poison in the medicine and poison in the air You tell me that it passes, but you were never there I’m tired of rebuilding what is doomed to burn There are no lessons left for me to learn [3:20 - 4:10] [Chorus] (Explosion maximale - Voix au bord des larmes, criée à pleins poumons) Walking through the ashes of a broken mind! Leaving every piece of what was left behind! Nothing here is sacred, nothing here is real! I just want to stop the way I fucking feel! [4:10 - 4:50] [Bridge] (Tempo très ralenti, lourdeur doom-rock écrasante, voix étranglée) Burn it down... Turn it all to gray... I don't want to live to see another day... Just sweep the ashes... sweep them all away... [4:50 - 5:30] [Outro] (La distorsion s'effondre, la basse continue seule avec un violoncelle sombre) (Chuchoté, voix cassée par les larmes) Just ashes... Nothing left inside... Nowhere left to hide... (Final heavy bass note decays into feedback) (Absolute silence) [End]
