Remnant

Daylight, we haven't seen it in forever
It's all just different shades of ash
I still remember how the red dot sight
Was warning my chest
The final breaths

And once they called this Eden
But I'm sure that must have passed
But I will keep imagining
For that is all we have left
Since the day when the sky was opened
We were blinded by the lights from above
We stand in silence awaiting the final cull

We are the afterglow
Of an antidote
The ones who won't let go
We are but ghosts

Hide! Do you hear that?
That is the sound of life
Don't let it fool you
That's how they lure you to die
Run! Do you feel that?
They are getting closer now
But don't you turn around
No! This one depends on our lives

Soul readers
Human shadow of death
A tragic silhouette
Soul readers
They are here to collect
Tear the heart out your chest
Will it outweigh the feather?

We are the afterglow
Of an antidote
The ones who won't let go
We are but ghosts
Daylight, a distant, elusive dream
A requiem for the world, forever unseen
Follow the ashes in the snow
Await the deathblow

We are but ghosts

Weigh our hearts against the feather
In this dance of death
We are but ghosts
Forever together

Weigh our hearts against the feather
We are but ghosts
Forever together

Hold me closer, don't let go
Hold me closer, don't let go
I won’t let go
Let you go

We are the afterglow
The ones who won’t let go
We are but ghosts

Forever together
