Into the Ashes Songtext
von Tigercub

Born
Into the ashes of a broken world
Full of mannequins and plastic forks
Taught to hate and to fear my sisters
Tempting fate, I will walk the distance

In this narrative, I have no voice
I fought a thousand wars with static noise
Lose my faith, just to ease this friction
In disgrace, I will burn alive for you

Love
Like an enemy, I keep it close
′Cause I know everything must run its course
Does it take death to give this life a purpose?
To make amends I keep searching, but


It's useless
Good intentions got the best of us
It′s useless
And your metaphors will turn us into
Fools because
You twist my words until I'm sick of turning
Useless
So uncertain, yet so full of purpose

Like silhouettes, we are at best an outline
Our shallow graves are marked along a layline
No regrets, just an endless vacuum
With every breath, I am certain that

It's useless
Good intentions got the best of us
It′s useless
And your metaphors will turn us into
Fools because
You twist my words until I′m sick of turning
Useless
So uncertain, yet so full of purpose

For a moment I was lost alone
Out of focus and depressed, alone
Love like this cannot exist without you
It makes us sick, but it's tainted and so useless


Useless
Good intentions got the best of us
It′s useless
And your metaphors will turn us into
Fools because
You twist my words until I'm sick of turning
Useless
So uncertain, yet so full of purpose
