[Verse 1] The sky is burning amber The air tastes like decay A dying sun is crawling Across its final day The rivers turn to cinders The wind forgets my name I walk through molten silence With blood instead of flame [Chorus] Ashes of a dying sun Fall like sins upon my skin The end was written long ago The fire burns within Ashes of a dying sun No tomorrow left to save I breathe the smoke of everything That time refused to claim [Verse 2] The clocks are melting slowly The future turns to dust I place my faith in nothing But iron, smoke, and rust The heavens shake in fever The stars begin to drown I drink the light of ages As darkness drags it down [Chorus] [Instrumental Break / Groove] [Bridge] Let it burn, let it fall No gods are coming now Let the sky collapse in flames I wear the end somehow [Final Chorus] Ashes of a dying sun No mercy, no release I stand upon the pyre And beg the fire for peace
