"Inferno" lyrics

In this shallow pool of lies
Locked in war forever
Striving to be lord of flies

The place I once called home I struggle now to recognize
A world in monochrome, all colors fading

Hopeful minds and starry eyes
Snuffed out in the mire
Sabotaged by their own pride

Thousands of faces are forgotten in a swirling haze
The lives we've dedicated, all for nothing

Fateful inferno that burned so bright
Has all but vanished in this cold night
Fall

Fickle and fleeting
Desperate for meaning

Do you see me now?
If all my heroes become villains, what the fuck am I?
Do you see me now?
Doomed to be lost in obscurity if I don't comply

Crawl through an endless void
I've been clawing and climbing and trying and lying to myself
Justifying becomes futile when there's no silver lining

Fateful inferno that burned so bright
Has all but vanished in this cold night
Shattered illusions through weary eyes
I can't remember why I still fight

Time is tearing my whole world apart
And to think that we all used to call this art

[Taylor Barber]
Losing myself
I'm floating forever
Between the clouds
Spiral into the nether

Desecrate me
Settle wrath and plunge into the unknown
Salvage what's the left
When I turn into the void
Into the abyss
That I'm left in here with
I am facing the wrath turn to the cold
Enter salvation

They have waited
Anticipation
As it grows inside me
I learn to love the feeling
Oh, I never felt so alive
It's holding the absence of dread in my mind
