Ashcoleath - Ashes of What We Were

[Instrumental Intro] "YeeeeeeAAAAAAAAHHHHH!" [Verse 1] I held your name like fire in my chest Burned through the silence, burned through the rest Your shadow walks where light once stayed Now every breath feels like decay [Pre-Chorus] You were the dream I couldn’t keep Now I drown in truths too deep [Chorus] Ashes of what we were Scattered in the winds of time No gods, no cure Just echoes in the grime I scream your name But stone won’t bleed Love is dead And so is need [Verse 2] I watched you fade like stars at dawn A ghost in flesh, already gone The mirror cracks, the mask is torn Reality — sharp, cold, and worn [Pre-Chorus] You were the lie I chose to trust Now I rot beneath the dust [Chorus repeat] Ashes of what we were Scattered in the winds of time No gods, no cure Just echoes in the grime I scream your name But stone won’t bleed Love is dead And so is need [Instrumental Bridge] [Bridge – Spoken/Growled] There’s no return No light to chase Just broken bones And empty grace [Final Chorus – Extended] Ashes of what we were Scattered in the winds of time No gods, no cure Just echoes in the grime I scream your name But stone won’t bleed Love is dead And so is need And so am I And so am I
