Reckoning Undying

Ashes to ashes
Forever we fall down
With broken dreams, we're blind to see
What twisted words they tell
In a sky that's without stars tonight
Where nightmares grow so real
How far we fall, forever lost
In broken concrete fields

In a world that grinds so ceaselessly
Where the wheels of culture turn

Where machines of hate speak hideously
And heaven's brightness burns
Offered up the fruits of slavery
Sown - The poisonous seeds of forgetting
Grow choking vines like bitter tragedies
And piercing thorns unseen

And so runs the world away
On scriptured lies, the ash of memory
And so we fall away
On scriptured lies, the ash of memory

In the withered tongues of love, we'll speak
Our whisperhidden heresies
Ten thousand years of bondage and their culture's black disease
