Obsidian Survival - Ground Zero Lyrics

Rats in the system, crawling through decay
We fed on the poison, just to waste away
Cities built on greed, now they smolder and burn
While the powerless wait for the tide to turn

Flesh and bone, torn apart at the seams
The death of our empire, twisted and obscene

Living in ground zero, in the grip of decay
A kingdom of ashes, there's hell to pay
Through filth and corruption, we claw and we scream
Living in ground zero, lost in a dead man's dream

Cries in the silence, hope turned to dust
The wolves ran the world, left nothing to trust
In the shadows they feast, laughing as we die
While we choke on the lies that buried the sky

Ripped from the core, our souls bled dry
This is the fate of a world built on lies

Living in ground zero, in the grip of decay
A kingdom of ashes, there's hell to pay
Through filth and corruption, we claw and we scream
Living in ground zero, lost in a dead man's dream

Chains of deceit wrapped tight 'round our throats
An empire built on blood and false oaths
Now we're crawling through fire, through ruin and smoke
In this pit of despair, there's no way to cope

Living in ground zero, in the grip of decay
A kingdom of ashes, there's hell to pay
Through filth and corruption, we claw, and we scream
Living in ground zero, lost in a dead man's dream

Welcome to ground zero, where the soul rots slow
In the heart of darkness, we reap what we sow
