Wake of Fire

I awake in solitude
Brave this Hell I call home
Fixated I’m seeing red
No hope left dead and gone
I invoke the vilest
In the shadows seething
Haunted by the memories
Burning in the wake of fire
I am nothing more
Than the sum of all I’ve done
Trudging through the storm
Searching for what’s left among the dead
New life reborn
Another reckless night
Here all alone I loathe
Withering wounded one
Unto my hate betrothed
I sentence you to death
Burn bridges light the way
From ashes hell will rise
The infernal reprise
Through the valley of regret
I devolve entirely
Fixated I’m seeing red
Don’t look so pitiful
Tired hearts and heavy heads
Take me down there with you
I, the most irreverent
Burning in the wake of fire
Hearing rats in the walls again
My lovely ones
Idle hands begin staggering
Feeding grief
Traverse beyond
Through an everlasting dawn
On my way back to you
Suffocated
No oxygen
Breathe again
No repentance
No remorse for anything
Once lived this lie
Wretched denial
Cursed to repeat the cycle of demise
The Infernal Reprise
