Oblivion At Hand Lyrics

This day we walk this path
We wear our masks in company
Hiding the shame of ours within
No witness to true self
but to those lying in the dust

Our failure lasts forever
as the ashes fall from the sky

We paint ourselves to look alike
We deny our liberation
We feel pain in every breath we take

We howl to the sky
on knees screaming in defeat
conquered by the exterior
begging forgiveness from the emptiness

We lie in the dark
waiting for inevitability
to wash ourselves free in the storm
To rise as one (to rise as one)
and stare up in exultance

Longing for the caress of another soul
hearts pounding as we see mortality fade
Threshold so close it's scent acrid
We feel pain in every breath we take

The last century is looming
unblinking to see time crashing away
and so we find our senses fading
Oblivion is at hand
the ashes coat all we were meant to be
and so we burn away
