Pyre (Ai_metal_radio Mix)

By Fragments ยท Metal

[Verse 1]

We crawl from ashes,

Nursed on venom, poisoned long before we learned our names.

We stand forsaken,

Shrouded in the armor forged from all our hidden shame.

[Hook]

Behind these crumbling altars,

divided by our fear,

We reach for light but grasp at smoke...

that disappears.

The silence builds a tidal wave

Erasing every truth we tried to save!

[Chorus]

Will you shed your blood for what you claim?

Break the gilded chains,

reject the hollow fame!

Blinded by our pride, we all fail to see

While we abandon all we're meant to be!

Raising serpents up as gods!

Raising serpents up as gods!

[Verse 2]

We bear the weight now,

Shackled to the ghosts who

died beneath your hollow reign,

Architects of chaos,

Sending sons and daughters marching straight into the flames!

[Pre-Chorus]

Within these broken kingdoms,

lines are drawn in ash

We pray for mercy even as the idols crash!

The echoes turn to avalanches,

Burying the oaths we couldn't grasp.

[Chorus]

Will you shed your blood for what you claim?

Break the gilded chains,

reject the hollow fame

Blinded by our pride,

we all fail to see.

While we abandon all we're meant to be!

Raising serpents up as gods

Raising serpents up as gods!

[Guitar solo]

[Break]

Did we ever crave salvation, or just monuments to self?

Did we honor those who fell, or leave them burning on the shelf?

The pyre's crowned by moths entranced by light,

We inherit embers,

call them our birthright.

[Final Chorus]

Will you shed your blood for what you claim?

Break the gilded chains, reject the hollow fame

Blinded by our pride, we fail to see

While we abandon all we're meant to be

Raising serpents up as gods

Raising serpents up as gods

[Outro]

Will we ever find the strength to break the curse, to break the curse?

Raising serpents up as gods

Will we ever find the strength to break the curse, to break the curse?
