Ashen
Ephemeral Embers: Unraveling Earth Burial's Ashen Saga
Lyrics
Barred behind the broken
Feeling confined and restricted by broken barriers
Chained to the invisible
Bound by unseen forces
Feel its grip tighten
Sensing the tightening grip of these forces
How long has it been?
Reflecting on the duration of the confinement
How long?
Pondering the prolonged duration
Leaden eyes
Heavy, burdened eyes
Lurk through blinds
Observing from a concealed vantage point
The world in bloom
The world flourishing around, contrasting the internal struggles
Suspire once more
Exhale and sigh, expressing weariness
When will my bones finally give?
Anticipating the eventual surrender of one's resilience
Bend and break
Being pushed to the breaking point
Distort
Twist and distort, reflecting internal turmoil
Contort
Contort, portraying inner conflict
What shape have we formed?
Questioning the shape or nature of the formed existence
Barred behind the broken
Reiteration of feeling confined by broken barriers
Chained to the invisible
Emphasizing being bound by unseen forces
Feel its grip tighten
Intensifying awareness of the tightening grip
The weight of loss is whole
The profound weight of loss is all-encompassing
Feigned existence echoes
False existence resounds and echoes
Forgotten are the blissful days
Recollection of joyous days now forgotten
Bygone, Benign
Past, harmless and kind
Basked in the afterglow of youth
Immersed in the fading glow of youthful exuberance
Remembrance grows cold
Memories becoming distant and cold
Throats aflame
Throats burning with intense emotions
Tongues ashen
Tongues turned to ash, conveying a sense of desolation
Consumed
Overwhelmed and consumed by these emotions
Bygone, Benign
Reiteration of a past that was harmless and kind
Bygone, Benign
Continued emphasis on a bygone and benign existence
Bygone, Benign
Repetition highlighting the irreversibility of the past
What shape have we formed?
Questioning the nature of the current existence
Our throats aflame
Intense emotional turmoil reflected in burning throats
Our tongues ashen
Tongues turned to ash symbolizing a sense of lifelessness
We are consumed
The overwhelming consumption of emotions
