Vessels of Ash

[Intro] [staccato orchestral strings, clean electric guitar melody] [distorted guitar power chords, double-kick drums] [Verse 1] [clean male vocals] From the bones of gods I rise again A vessel carved from ash and sin Beneath the veil of twin moonlight I find the ruins of endless night [Chorus] [screamed vocals] I rise! [clean male vocals] I rise! [screamed vocals] Crawling through the imperfect fields The stars recoil, the heavens yield My hands are cracked, my lungs are stone I bear the weight of thrones unknown [Bridge] [orchestral strings, clean guitar arpeggios] The sky divine, deny every void, every still in pain The world remains in fractured flame My soul reborn without a name [Chorus] [full band, screamed vocals] We are vessels of ash carved in celestial fire Born to burn yet bound to desire From the silence, from the scars I rise To eclipse the stars! [Outro] [distorted guitar breakdown, heavy kick drum] The crown of dust still haunts my brow I've seen eternity and now Every breath unearths the cost To reign as gods we must be lost [screamed vocals] I am not the flame I am what's left when it dies I am the wound that never lies [orchestral strings fade out]
