lyrics

I feel you there
Likeness is pulling me down
I’ll move on in spite

Entropy drives abiding heartbreak
Absent, absent of fear, absent of love, absent of you
I’ll keep running away from the man you became

I feel you there inching closer to me
The shadows disguise your flaws
I’m scared I'm like you
I despise you
Come into my view
I can hear you
Breathing in the dark

Inching closer to me with a sterilizing mindset
I'll never forget hiding wishing you were different
My existence is maligning you
I'll move on in spite of you hiding a lie between two truths
Your worthless and I need you, my life is better this way

Clench my wrist like everything slips between your finger tips
What are you
The shadows disguise your flaws
I’m scared I'm like you
I despise you
Come into my view
I can hear you
Breathing

How could you hate your namesake
What are you standing over me
I can hear you breathing
Frozen by hatred and diffidence
Confused by states of ambivalence
Begging for deliverance I keep my eyes shut
I can't escape you standing over me
I was six

Ashen

Before Ashen, I thought they were overrated. Deathcore bands seem to have a capacity to evolve quickly. I’ve seen quite a few bands in this genre grow exponentially from one album to the next, and Ashen is a particularly strong example. Metallurgical Fire
