Carrion

(Verse 1):

In dusk-lit halls of memory’s decay

I wander through echoes of yesterday

Flesh of my past strewn like autumn leaves

A banquet of ghosts, each sigh deceives

(Pre-Chorus):

The vultures in my mind

Circle truths I can’t find

(Chorus):

I am carrion, feeding on fear

A hollow heart whispers when death draws near

But from every splinter, every hollowed bone

I rise unbroken, reclaim what’s my own

(Verse 2):

Dust settles soft on my fractured wings

I gather the pieces, the rust of all things

These scars are the map of storms I have braved

The blood of my losses, the strength that they gave

(Pre-Chorus):

The darkness bows low

To the fire I know

(Chorus):

I am carrion, feeding on fear

A hollow heart whispers when death draws near

But from every splinter, every hollowed bone

I rise unbroken, reclaim what’s my own

(Bridge):

From rot and ruin, a phoenix appears

Its voice is my voice, reborn from my tears

No longer the prey, I claim this domain

In the marrow of night, I reign

(Final Chorus):

I am carrion, feeding on fear

A hollow heart whispers when death draws near

And from every splinter, every hollowed bone

I rise unbroken, reclaim what’s my own

I am carrion, feeding on fear

A hollow heart whispers when death draws near

And from every splinter, every hollowed bone

I rise unbroken, reclaim what’s my own

(Outro):

In dusk-lit halls of memory’s decay

I am the feast, yet I am the way
