Walk the Path of Fire - Abysmal Dawn

We wanted so much but were doomed right from the start

The yearning, wanting more that comes with beating hearts

The path is shown and now we learn

Through trial and tribulation we grow and burn

Choose to walk the path of fire and return

With knowledge of a lost empire

We have forsaken dreams with envy in our hearts

The bitterness in me consumes my every thought

The path is shown and now we learn

Through trial and tribulation we grow

This haunted soul will never rest in peace

Until it learns it has expired

Remembering yet clinging onto nothing

We wander on this wretched earth all alone

Choose to walk the path of fire and return

With knowledge of a lost empire we now burn

Wallowing in the waste of doubt

Empathy given then taken

Misery will see this out

The truly free have nothing for taking

How should I feel when I feel nothing?

This void is growing now

Am I now free?

Now I have nothing

A smile can fool you all

When we finally reach those false shores of hope long desired

There’s no turning back

In remembrance of things past we drift now and wonder

Why we’ve chosen the path of fire?
