We Ain't Ashes - Shores Of Null

WE AIN’T ASHES

All the ships have sailed

From the kingdom carved out on lies

So sick of giving in

Feel the sunrise

Share the same fall

May the downfall be eternal

May the landing be so sweet

Will we be colleagues in despair?

May the fragile be the strongest

May the hopeless be the judge

Of your life consumed by tragedy

Falling

Crumbling

We ain’t ashes

We chose fire

Beating

Burning

We ain’t ashes

We chose fire

May the unsung be remembered

May the wretched be the king

A grief’s empire

May the mountains be the flesh

May the branches be the bones

Our bones

Freedom to fall

As the heaviest teardrop gushes

Feel these smothered flames

How they long to be fired up

Dreams of stars aloof

I want you to stand by me

For the tears that we swallow

For the true black that we cry

After all, stains will stay

For the routine, for the logic

For the days left undone

Burn them down, let them burn
