ASHEN KINGDOM

Intro

Ashes in the holy wind

Choir calling from within

Ohhh—ohhh

The kingdom burns again

Verse 1

Stone towers turning black

No salvation coming back

Crowns covered up in dust

Broken saints and rust

Cold flames lighting empty halls

Hear the ancient empire fall

Heavy skies and poisoned rain

Every prayer sounds the same

Pre-Chorus

And the silence starts to sing

For the ending of a king

Chorus

Ashen kingdom underneath

Choir buried with the weak

Heaven fading into smoke

Every sacred vow is broke

Ashen kingdom, hollow throne

No god left to call our own

Marching through the dying light

We become the dark tonight

Verse 2

Candles shaking in the storm

Ghosts without a final form

Silver crosses lose their shine

Everything gets left behind

Massive drums beneath the ground

Like the earth collapsing down

Voices echo through the fire

Feeding something old and dire

Bridge / Choir

Ohhhh

Ashes fall forever

Ohhhh

Nothing lasts forever

Choir:

Burn it down

Burn it down

Let the kingdom drown

Final Chorus

Ashen kingdom underneath

Choir crying through the heat

Cathedrals crumble into dust

Turning gold and bones to rust

Ashen kingdom, end of grace

Darkness written on our face

When the final bells arrive

Only shadows leave alive
