World of Ashes

Do you ever feel
The most rotten of feelings?
As you drift away your lifetime
Slow and circumspect

Never undermine
The weakness we draw on
As we force ourselves to
Never question what comes next

For the pain we feel now
And all that's to come
Denial won't keep you safe
This world of ashes can't survive

Now the Earth boils
Fuming from your contempt
As the waves loom angry
Growing larger on the sky

But it's not too late
To pin our eyes open
Privilege and desolation
Walking side by side

For the pain we feel now
And all that's to come
Denial won't keep you safe
For the life that you stole
Is yours now to earn
Your riches won't keep you safe
On the fall of this world
You sat vapid cold
Your ignorance keeps you chained
This world of ashes can't survive

(Can't take this back)

The undeniable change
The crippling droughts
It's now

No shield for such sights
The arctic ice melts
This time

With famine abound
But hope to be found
Can you find it?

As dark days draw in
As humankind dies
Will you save it?

For the pain we feel now
And all that's to come
Denial won't keep you safe
For the life that you stole
Is yours now to earn
Your riches won't keep you safe
On the fall of this world
You sat vapid cold
Your ignorance keeps you chained
Our world of ashes can't survive

(Can't take this back)

Our world will fall before your eyes

(Can't take this back)
