In a world built of torment Under smoke-blackened orbits I was carving your name in the marrow of night While the lamplight expires in venomous white
The angels were silent Their wings folded shut And the city bled dreamers Through alleyway cuts
Let's escape Escape this Ashen World Where the hearts are sold And the flags unfurled We'll rebuild a realm From forgotten dreams Where creation rises Through fractured seams Far away beyond their schemes
There are corridors hollow Where the wretched gods swallow Every spark that would dare To illuminate pain Yet we kept one alive In the dark like a stain
So gather the embers And breathe them to flame We'll craft a new cosmos And burn out their name
Let's escape Escape this Ashen World Where the hearts are sold And the flags unfurl We'll rebuild a realm From forgotten dreams Where creation rises Through fractured seams Far away beyond their schemes
Far away Far away Far away beyond their schemes
Oh, Ink on your wrist like a fallen saint Oh, Blood mixing red with the poets paint Oh, Silence made sharp with a silver vow Oh, We leave them behind We leave them all
So escape Escape this carnivorous night Where the ghosts in glass Beg for second sight We'll invent a world From our dying gleams Where the cruel dissolve Into fractured dreams Burn
Let's escape Escape this Ashen World Where the hearts are sold And the flags unfurl We'll rebuild a realm From forgotten dreams As creation rises Through fractured seams Far away beyond their schemes Beyond their schemes
