Ruin Lyrics by Altered Perceptions

From Rise To Ruins

2016

The earth quakes
The ashes of volcanos join
To seal all fate
We've gutted and fucked Mother Earth
Now she reclaims what is hers

Charcoaled bodies litter the streets
Ash covered the sky, no one will be buried
Six feet deep, six feet deep

As the ash begins to fall
Suffocation is the future of all
We choke and regurgitate
We choke and regurgitate the chalky dust
We choke and regurgitate the chalky dust

Flesh discarded by heat
The smell of burning meat
This is never ending, this is never ending
Flesh discarded by heat
The smell of burning meat
The smell of burning meat

We have risen from the ruins
It is too late, we are all doomed
As the fire releases from the planet's womb
We have risen from the ruins
It is too late, we are all doomed
As the fire releases from the planet's womb

So promised an eternal euphoric driven ambition
Walking towards the certain flame
Pulsing before me in the sky

Make way for a whole new existence
Another chance to make it right
Wipe the humans from the ruins

And let them wither away
We weren't put here to stay or be saved
Now left to rot and slowly decay
Slowly decay

A lost formidable race
You want to save it but it's just too late
If you want a chance to make it right
Embrace death and end your life
End your life
End your life
End your life
