Apocalyptic Defiance
[Intro] Ashes in the static Voices in the flood I was made of war and ruin I was born of blood [Verse] The horizon burns beneath a dying sun The silence screams through shattered lungs As heaven falls And the end has just begun Pray on your knees Prostrate Gods with hollow eyes and wasted names Stand for the lies we create These wasted years For fear of wasted days [Pre-Chorus] Burn the scripture from my veins Tear the halo from the flame Every promise left to rot Every blessing left in chains [Chorus] Devour Devour the architecture of grace Drag the rotted heavens to their resting place Devour Devour 'til there's nothing to save A guttural elegy that swallows the grave [Verse 2] Bloodletting the heart for penance Of false atonement Starving for the selfless reward Damnation of my own volition Purgation of submission The shepherd shall perish by the sword [Pre-Chorus] The monuments are turning dust The faithful choke on sacred rust No redemption waits beyond The ashes of the things we trust [Chorus] Devour Devour the architecture of grace Drag the rotted heavens to their resting place Devour Devour 'til there's nothing to save A guttural elegy that swallows the grave [Ooh] Ashes in the static Voices in the flood I was made of war and ruin I was born of blood [Build up] The sky collapses inward The oceans boil beneath the dead moon Cathedrals sink into the black earth And still the silence hungers [Breakdown] Watch the towers fall Watch the idols break Watch the holy drown In the graves they made This is the sound Of a world erased This is the sound Of apocalyptic defiance [Outro Chorus] Devour Devour the architecture of grace Drag the rotted heavens to their resting place Devour Devour 'til there's nothing to save A guttural elegy that swallows the grave Devour Until the stars are extinguished Devour Until the void forgets our names Devour Until creation chokes upon its own remains Devour And leave nothing but the grave
