Splinters of Shadow (Feat. Plagues)

from Melancholia by Abandoned by Light

/

lyrics

Eternally falling deeper and deeper
Into the suffocating emptiness below
Into the fire that eternally burns within
Scalding flames violating the skies

The darkness was always there
Rising till it has consumed it all
Blackening and destroying
Till it became ashes in the wind

Far beyond the walls of safety
Forged of shattered bone and pain
And layered in broken angel wings
Despairing starved hands break skin

The promises of a grand deceiver
Have led them down a burning road
A cross bathed in the tears of the masses
Marks the point at which we were lost

All that was begun is ending
As the fire rises to consume
All that was planned is dying
As the sky fades to blackness

The spire that raped the skies
Is brought down to the dirt
Embraced by mulling corpse hands
The grand deceiver is bleeding

Splinters of shadows forced deep inside
Breaking the skin, and infecting the flesh
With terrible words and perverse ideals
A crown of scars heralding my demise

Dragging you down, further than ever
Into the worm infested earth, rotting
Far beyond the cracked walls of safety
Forged from countless broken hearts
