Ashen World Songtext
von Kamelot

In a world built of torment
Under smoke-blackened orbit
I was carving your name in the marrow of night
While the lamplight expired in venomous white
The angels were silent, their wings folded shut
And the city bled dreamers through any waycut

Let′s escape, escape this ashen world
Where the hearts are sold and the flames unfurl
We'll rebuild a realm from forgotten dreams
Where creation rises through fractured seams
Far away beyond their schemes

There are corridors hollow
Where the wretched gods swallow
Every spark that would dare to illuminate pain
Yet we kept one alive in the dark like a stain
So gather the embers and breathe them to flame
We′ll craft a new cosmos and burn off their name


Let's escape, escape this ashen world
Where the hearts are sold and the flames unfurl
We'll rebuild a realm from forgotten dreams
Where creation rises through fractured seams
Far away beyond their schemes
Far away, far away
Beyond their schemes

Oh, ink on your wrists like a fallen saint
Oh, blood mixed in red with the bullet′s paint
Oh, silence recharged with a silver bell
Oh, we leave them behind, we leave them

So escape, escape this carnivorous night
Where the ghosts in glass beg for a second sight
We′ll invent a world from our dying gleams
Where the cruel dissolves into fractured dreams, oh

Let's escape, escape this ashen world
Where the hearts are sold and the flames unfurl
We′ll rebuild a realm from forgotten dreams
Where creation rises through fractured seams
Far away beyond their schemes
Far away, far away
Beyond their schemes


Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Beyond their schemes
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Beyond their schemes
