Fading Ember Songtext
von Cryptic Echoes

Once there was a flame inside my chest
Now it′s just a fading ember no rest
Shadows crawl through the cracks of my mind
Where hope once lived now none to find

Fading ember lost in the cold
Everything bright turns to gray and old
No more light just endless night
Fading ember I lose the fight

The walls are closing in I can't escape
A hollow soul a twisted shape
Every breath is a struggle to take
In this broken life everything is fake

Fading ember lost in the cold
Everything bright turns to gray and old
No more light just endless night
Fading ember I lose the fight


The days blur together no start no end
Nothing left to fix nothing left to mend
Falling deeper into the abyss
Gone are the days of joy and bliss

Fading ember lost in the cold
Everything bright turns to gray and old
No more light just endless night
Fading ember I lose the fight

Nowhere to run nowhere to hide
This dying fire is my only guide
A flicker left then nothing more
I close my eyes let the darkness roar

Nowhere to run nowhere to hide
This dying fire is my only guide
A flicker left then nothing more
I close my eyes let the darkness roar

The silence deepens a chilling call
Echoes of despair in a crumbling hall
Lost in the void the shadows creep
In the abyss where forgotten dreams sleep


The ember fades withering away
Into the night where I choose to stay
No more whispers no more cries
Just the emptiness that fills my eyes

The final breath the final plea
In the stillness there′s no more of me
A distant memory a whisper in the cold
A fading ember the story told
