Destiny's call - it's cry on the wind
Push and pull us to our untimely ends
Hands of fate and powers beyond our control
Bring me my end, but I don't care anymore
Scatter the ashes, and fade it to black
A cold embrace the only promise kept
Dormant acts and words left unsaid
Reminders of what could have been
Don't tell me fate wills it so
Don't tell me it's all in the plan
Conclusions are happenstance
Products of what came before
Standing tall, at the end of your world
Watch it fall
All that you've done, and all that you've earned
Watch it burn
Blood on my hands, pain in my eyes
For what it's become I'd trade with my life
Fool to have thought, at the end of it all
I could escape the writing on the wall
When life has a script, no point reading off it
All moves I make are planned, preordained
Is the will of the gods to burden me so?
Setting me up, watching me fall
Chained to the wheel, a slave to the odds
The search for hope such a worthless cause
Put me to sleep, and lay me to rest
Leaving this world, to die like the rest
Standing tall, at the end of your world
Watch it fall
All that you love, and all that you've earned
Watch it burn
Blood on my hands, pain in my eyes
For what it's become I'd trade with my life
Fool to have thought, at the end of it all
I could escape the writing on the wall
An empty solace
A shallow grave
Haunted by the shadow of your memory
Blood on my hands, pain in my eyes
For what it's become I'd trade with my life
Fool to have thought, at the end of it all
I could escape the writing on the wall.
