Lyrics


1. ALL THAT YOU LOST

We were always meant to burn
Painted black over your memory
A fading silhouette
Vacant and empty

Dead to me
There's no sense of peace now
It left with my sympathy
Dead to me
Cycling into a void with no remedy

To hell with you
We were always fucking meant to burn
All that you lost
Nothing that you ever deserved

In vain the sorrow came
Bearing the weight of your tragedy

Color your pain a different shade
I won't be caught in the hell you paint
Truth is the world turned its back on you
Long before you ever knew

Meant to burn
Choke on the lies you told
Faith decieves the blind
Hope devours the soul
Painted black over your memory
A fading silhouette
Vacant and empty

We were always meant to burn
We were always meant to burn
We were always meant to burn
We were always meant to burn

Death will follow like a shadow that you can't escape
Haunted by regret
Married to the grave

Color your pain a different shade
I won't be caught in the hell you paint
Truth is the world turned its back on you
Long before you ever knew

Color your pain
I won't be caught in the hell you paint
Color your pain
Bearing the weight of your tragedy

To hell with you
We were always fucking meant to burn
All that you lost
Nothing that you ever deserved

Nothing that you ever deserved


2. SMOKE AND MIRRORS

Lost in my own skin
Drowning it pulls me in
The silence echoing
Memories that I can't erase

Chasing death
Back to the start
Never knowing what I want until it falls apart
Buried grief
At the bottom with apathy
The silence echoing

No future, I've abandoned hope
Familiar feelings as I'm hanging at the end of my rope
No future without sacrifice
Familiar feelings that I'll never get this right

Afraid for when it falls apart
How do you cut the losses from an empty heart
Too late, where did I go wrong?
It's a slow decay, I should've seen all along

Lost in my own skin
Complacent waste
Incinerate
Smoke and mirrors are all I've ever known of my faith
A glass house
And I can't find a way to escape
Buried grief
At the bottom with apathy

A thin line between love and hate
To forget means that I forgave
It's a slow decay
Anxiously withering

A thin line between love and hate
To forget means that I forgave
It's a slow decay
Anxiously withering

Afraid for when it falls apart
How do you cut the losses from an empty heart
Too late, where did I go wrong?
It's a slow decay, I should've seen all along

Lost in my own skin
Drowning it pulls me in
The silence echoing
Memories that I can't erase
Memories that I can't erase


3. INTO THE BLACK

So endlessly I wait to be unearthed
The dark knows my name
And it feels my curse
Found a way to lay here with my ghost
Shaking hands with death just to keep it close

How do I hear
Through the voices screaming in my head?
Self inflicted decline
Anticipating my end

So endlessly I wait to be undone
The dark knows my name
I watched it swallow the sun
Found a way to lay here with my misery
Empty as I'll ever be

Into the black
This is solitude
Disappearing just to feel something new

Is it meaningless?
All the emptiness
Searching for light where it doesn't exist
Growing cold to love
Never felt the touch
Endlessly waiting
Numb to the feeling

How do I hear
Through the voices screaming in my head?
Transparent thoughts
Neglected for the sake of the loss
How do I grow
Where the light refuses to go
No silver line in the path I follow

This is solitude
Disappearing just to feel something new
This is solitude
Nothing left for me to fucking lose

There's nothing left for me to fucking lose
Collapsing with the weight of the truth
There's nothing left to lose

Is it meaningless?
All the emptiness
Searching for light where it doesn't exist
Growing cold to love
Never felt the touch
Endlessly waiting
Numb to the feeling

When only ashes remain
Spread them with my misery

When only ashes remain
Spread them with my misery
