Lyrics

Verse 1

Ash settles on hollow chest

I built my altar to nothing at all

Candles gutter in the long dead hall

My own requiem I confess

Pre-Chorus

No god leaned down to answer

No saint to catch my fall

The void just waits with patient hands

Chorus

We are dust that learned to scream

Wearing crowns of fading light

Every prayer a shattered dream

Every dawn another night

Post-Chorus

Night (night)

Endless night

Night (night)

Swallow me whole

Verse 2

Choir of moth wings on the bone

Crown of iron rusts and bleeds

Nothing lives where nothing needs

And still I walk this earth alone

Pre-Chorus

No god leaned down to answer

No saint to catch my fall

The void just waits with patient hands

Chorus

We are dust that learned to scream

Wearing crowns of fading light

Every prayer a shattered dream

Every dawn another night

Post-Chorus

Night (night)

Endless night

Night (night)

Swallow me whole

Bridge

If endings are the only truth

Then let these strings play black

Let the anthem of the toothless wolf

Come howling at the back

Chorus

We are dust that learned to scream

Wearing crowns of fading light

Every prayer a shattered dream

Every dawn another night

Outro

Night (night)

Endless night (night)
