Cipher of Ashes

Lyrics

Intro
Hush in the static sea
A black glass dawn for me
(Hush in the static sea)
I taste the falling code

Verse 1
I saw my face in the shard
Flicker-skinned, half erased
Cold light in the data scars
Ghost hands on the gate
The omen came as a pulse
Buried under sealed alarms
Your name in a ciphered bruise
Burned on my inner arm

Pre-Chorus
We are the broken signal
Calling from the deep
We are the mirrored fallen
Learning how to speak
The lock begins to tremble
The veil begins to peel
Something in the silence
Says the wound is real

Chorus
Wake in the ash
Wake in the ash
Encrypted revelation
Wake in the ash
Wake in the ash
Choirs of corrupted skies
I hear your shadow singing
Through my shattered eyes
Wake in the ash
Wake in the ash

Verse 2
The city dream went hollow
Under frozen rain
Angels with cracked antennas
Sang my grief in vain
I walked through blue black mirrors
Past the salt and bone
Every step left a question
Every breath a drone

Pre-Chorus
We are the broken signal
Calling from the deep
We are the mirrored fallen
Learning how to speak
The lock begins to tremble
The veil begins to peel
Something in the silence
Says the wound is real

Chorus
Wake in the ash
Wake in the ash
Encrypted revelation
Wake in the ash
Wake in the ash
Choirs of corrupted skies
I hear your shadow singing
Through my shattered eyes
Wake in the ash
Wake in the ash

Bridge
If I am the omen
Then you are the flame
If I am the ruin
Then you still know my name
Beneath the scarred horizon
Beneath the dead machine
I found the hidden mirror
And it was still us, still seen

Final Chorus
Wake in the ash
Wake in the ash
Encrypted revelation
Wake in the ash
Wake in the ash
Choirs of corrupted skies
I hear your shadow singing
Through my shattered eyes
Wake in the ash
Wake in the ash
