Fade to Dust

Paint on the canvas, whisper a forgotten melody
Cracks form in the crumbling ruins
Rust creeps along twisted strings
Everything meets its maker someday

Try your best to leave a legacy
But can't stop the end

As the world fades to dust, feel the ground shake as the earth cracks its crust
Steady hands to welcome the end
Take a look up, watch the world fade to dust

Open your eyes, take your hands and build something to last
Carve a mark in stone before you pass
Cut scars into the earth for what you seek
Leave a trace or a stain of your humanity

In the end the colors start to fade
Blood seeps from the cracks

As the world fades to dust, feel the ground shake as the earth cracks its crust
How much more until the end
Eyes up ahead, watch the world fade to dust

How does the hand, reach out and grab the broken edge
How does the mind resurface from the deep
There's no roads out of rock bottom
Just a highway straight down to oblivion

All it takes is one step out the dark
To find the light

As the world fades to dust, feel the ground shake as the earth cracks it's crust
Nothing left but to welcome the end
We're all that's left, watching worlds fade to dust
