Ashes of Vanity Lyrics

Breathe in the smoke of our burning dreams

Cities light up with our silent screams

We weave our lives with threads of steel

Blinded eyes can't see what's real

(What's real)

We're trading blood for the oil in the ground

Lost in the echo of a haunting sound

Can we rise from the ashes of our vanity?

Must we drown in the oceans of our apathy?

Change the tide before it's too late

Break these chains rewrite our fate

Unless we heal the wounds we've made

We'll disappear in the shade we've laid

Echoes of warnings left unheeded

In the whirlwind of power we're defeated

Forests fall to the hunger of machines

Ignoring the cries in between the scenes

A planet in peril we hold the key

Unlock the future let the earth breathe

Can we rise from the ashes of our vanity?

Must we drown in the oceans of our apathy?

Change the tide before it's too late

Break these chains rewrite our fate

Unless we heal the wounds we've made

We'll disappear in the shade we've laid

We stand at the edge on the brink of night

Hold on to hope with all our might

From darkness to dawn the change we need

Written in the stars in our creed
