Embers

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Randy Blythe] Gather the bones and lay them in the sun In patterns that capture the eye No one could know, display for everyone The holes in our souls we despise Timber and stone, monumental Remnants frozen in time Carried alone the burden, knowing It was all we could do to survive (Remnants frozen in time) [Chorus: Randy Blythe] Only embers remain Refusing to fade There's still light to find our way Only embers remain Black turning to gray There's still light to find our way Only embers remain [Verse 2: Randy Blythe] Scatter the dust, what we once held In hand seems was never at all Gone in a gust, not ours to understand An agony perpetual Holding my breath and close my eyes For a second, I can see you again Motionless, like that day We lost who we both should have been (I can see you again) [Chorus: Randy Blythe] Only embers remain Refusing to fade There's still light to find our way Only embers remain Black turning to gray There's still light to find our way Only embers [Outro: Chino Moreno & Randy Blythe] I've been staring at her lying still for so long She's so still, she's so still Waiting for this endless night to color into dawn It's never ending, it's never ending But it's never lifting, it's always shifting No one can breathe It holds me under, and this drags down you It drags you down, it drags you down This breaks what was made one into two
