Lyrics Ashfall - Hackneyed

Ashfall

We’re trying to get out of here
And if we fail, we’ll be left for dead
The shroud crushes the atmosphere
Like a virus — it will rot us
Our Earth, a running sore
But still — we drill deeper and deeper
Fighting our last war
To survive — a world hostile to life
We’re lost in ignorance
Souls drenched in black
Our world at combustion
We burn ourselves in effigy
And decay
'cause ash won’t wash our sins away
Possession becomes obsession
That’s what we’re dying for
That’s what we’re dying for
Our Earth, a running sore
But still — we drill deeper and deeper
Fighting our last war
To survive — a world hostile to life
We’re lost in ignorance
Souls drenched in black
Our world at combustion
We burn ourselves in effigy
And decay
'cause ash won’t wash our sins away
