Severance - Crimson Carnival

[instrumental intro] [verse] Dust motes drift dying beams a requiem what has been cobalt blooms across the sky A silence A venom A velvet sigh [pre-chorus] Pallid questions echo in my bones "Is severance freedom, or carried stones?" Obsidian shows a phantom guise, "Embrace the night, or be erased." Bile taste, metallic plea And laugh, a shard, exquisite, free. [chorus] From Ruin's chrysalis, let my spirit rend... night’s a shroud unraveled to its end. Undaunted stand against this sight Become the stream that splits the night. [verse] Walk the precipice where shadows breed phantom sovereigns, plant defiant seed. Dawn spills mercury through thoughts laid bare Constellations etched upon despair. Carrion birds feast on all their remains, Kingdoms I'll forge from iron veins. [Pre-chorus] Leviathans within stretch and stir, Raging symphony's primal blur. I'll crown myself from splinters past Testament battles meant to last. [chorus] Rise from the wreck, my heart it will ignite Night's a pyre burning with spectral light Undaunted standing against the might Becoming all within my birthright [bridge] They offered solace in gilded cage, A mute echo of a bygone age. But silence breeds a venom's desire To rend the fabric, ignite the pyre. Let them speak of ruin and faded grace I am now the storm, rewrite time and space. I am the echo of a forgotten scream A brilliant light birthing waking dream. [outro] Dawn bleeds a violet stain Across ruins, this world of pain... No requiem No fallen tear Only whispers are what we hear Let ether weep Rebellion sown deep Severed... Reborn... Never asleep.
