Ashes to the Wind Songtext
von Borrowed Light

I can′t tell the dream from the waking
These ghosts feel carved into bone
Curtains of silence sway in dissonance
Every step dissolves into semblance
I chase the marrow of something unseen
But it slips like mercury between my teeth
To taste whats underneath
Ink bleeds from the veins of the silence
A theatre of ghosts in disguise
The air tastes of rust and defiance
Yet I'm still devoured by lies fiction and fever entwine
I′ll linger in fractures forever
Fault lines that never align
I wade through these distant murmurs
This pain feels carved into bone
My reflection is constantly breaking
I mourn the shape of your shadow
Is this your final form?
We'll set the ashes to the wind without memory
Am I the dream or am I coming undone


I cannot describe the shape of certainty
Every syllable dissolves in absurdity
The hourglass spills out false infinities
Grains of what is and what never was
Things I question were said are stitched together
With counterfeit thread
And I still linger
I wade through these distant murmurs
This pain feels carved into bone
My reflection is constantly breaking
I mourn the shape of your shadow
Is this your final form?
We'll set the ashes to the wind without memory
I can′t tell what is real
And I don′t know just
How I feel
Am I the figment of imagination?
A phantom gnawing its own disguise
The hours bleed with such vibrant colors
And still the veil denies
Am I the figment of imagination?
A phantom gnawing its own disguise
The hours bleed with such vibrant colors
And still the veil denies
