Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When you sit there acting like you know me,
Like you brought me here to break me slowly.
Never mind the death threats waiting at the door,
We’d rather fall six feet than feel alone anymore.

You drink the water only when it’s holy,
Speak of freedom while you’re trying to control me.
Your words burn like fire, cutting through the night,
But keep your eyes on the road, or we’ll both lose this fight.

[Pre-Chorus]
I tumbled to earth, my breath ripped away,
This body of flesh feels like a prison I betrayed.
My mind’s in the undertow, drowning below,
They promised me power, but it’s sorrow I sow.

[Chorus]
Ashes and embers, flames in the dark,
A hero was lost, but a demon left its mark.
A voice in the shadows keeps dragging me down,
While the sky burns red, and the ashes rain down.
They tore me apart, left my soul to decay,
But even in ruin, I’ll carve my own way.

[Verse 2]
I fell to my knees, a stranger stared back,
Eyes wild with fury, a heart painted black.
The pieces of who I was scattered in flames,
All I could whisper was my forgotten name.

I’ve got a river running straight into you,
A blood trail red where the light bleeds through.
Hold your breath, you make the perfect sound,
Time’s not a friend; it only tears me down.

[Pre-Chorus]
This body of flesh and bone feels like a lie,
A cage for a soul that’s destined to die.
The fire consumes me, but I won’t let it win,
I’ll rise from the ashes and burn from within.

[Chorus]
Ashes and embers, flames in the dark,
A hero was lost, but a demon left its mark.
A voice in the shadows keeps dragging me down,
While the sky burns red, and the ashes rain down.
They tore me apart, left my soul to decay,
But even in ruin, I’ll carve my own way.

[Bridge]
Let the fire take me, I’ll fight through the flame,
Scars on my heart spell out your name.
Every tear, every scream, every broken word,
Turns into embers that will never burn unheard.

[Breakdown]
Never lost it all—can you feel my breath?
Even in destruction, I am more than death.
You tried to chain me, you tried to break my spine,
But from these ashes, I’ll rise every time.

[Final Chorus]
Ashes and embers, the fire is mine,
A demon reborn from the chains of time.
A voice in the shadows couldn’t pull me down,
Now I light the sky, and the ashes rain down.
They tore me apart, but I’m stronger today,
From ruin to power, I’ll burn my own way.

[Outro]
My body of flesh, my prison of stone,
I’ve built my kingdom from the fire alone.
Ashes and embers, the story is clear,
From death comes the power to silence my fear.
