Lyrics
[Verse]
The ceiling dissolved into a throat of soot
Where the stars used to puncture the velvet skin
I stepped on the ledge of a hollow root
Feeling the marrow of time grow thin
Gravity failed like a broken vow
The floorboards are breathing in shallow gasps
There is no tomorrow and there is no now
Only the rattle of iron clasps
[Chorus]
Behold the maw of the coming tide
A feast of ash for the ghosts to share
Nowhere to run and nowhere to hide
The heavy weight of the empty air
The pillars are buckling beneath the strain
As the fabric of light begins to tear
Wash the slate in the acid rain
And bow to the silence of the abyss
[Verse]
The prophets are gagged by the choking dust
Their scriptures are rotting in frozen ink
We traded our blood for a crown of rust
Now we are balancing on the brink
The horizon is bleeding a jagged line
Cutting the throat of the weary sun
Every clock is a lie of design
The undoing has finally begun
[Pre-Chorus]
The drums are the heartbeat of a dying star
The strings are the nerves of a broken choir
The void is opening its jagged scar
To swallow the wreckage of our desire
[Chorus]
Behold the maw of the coming tide
A feast of ash for the ghosts to share
Nowhere to run and nowhere to hide
The heavy weight of the empty air
The pillars are buckling beneath the strain
As the fabric of light begins to tear
Wash the slate in the acid rain
And bow to the silence of the abyss
