Ashes to Adversary

Buried me in the cold hard ground

Thought your sins would never be found

Your hands still red from the knife you held

But death’s a door

And I broke the spell

I rise from the ashes

I rise from the grave

I am the storm that you cannot escape

You thought you were safe

But I’m breathing again

Ashes to adversary

I’ve come to the end

Your name still burns in my hollow chest

A curse that lingers

A debt unaddressed

The earth spit me out

It couldn’t contain

The vengeance that flows like blood in my veins

You thought it was over

You thought I was done

But the war has begun

I rise from the ashes

I rise from the grave

I am the storm that you cannot escape

You thought you were safe

But I’m breathing again

Ashes to adversary

I’ve come to the end

Your shadow shakes

Your voice cracks

I see the fear crawling up your back

You made me a ghost

You made me a lie

Now I’ll watch you break as you beg and cry
