lyrics

Believing the world would not forsake us…
Deceiving ourselves, we won't awake to see
We are alone.

We are alone in our graves: nothing awaits us -
We are the arbiters of our own design.

We look to the sky for god to save us;
We march to our graves, naught to replace us;
We are the harbingers of our own demise.

Wandering aimlessly
As the stars glisten like a light to lead
The mindless hive out to the sea
Where a chiral grave awaits eternally.
Embrace solidarity -
Undeceived by self-imposed verity;
The only thing I regret is believing
When you said that you were there beside me.

The only thing I regret is believing you when you said there was hope.

We look to the sky for god to save us;
We look to our sides to our brothers in pain;
We march to our graves, naught to replace us;
We are the arbiters of our own design.
Believing the world would not forsake us -
Deceiving ourselves, we won't awake to see
We are alone in our graves, nothing awaits us;
We are the harbingers of our own demise.

If hope is the last to die
Has the end already passed before our eyes?
Too enthralled by the distant stars to recognise
That the dream that we were seeking was never alive.
Blaspheming against our souls
Forever looking outwards just to make a home
But I'm the only god that cares for my own
And god sits alone atop his jaded throne.

We look to the sky for god to save us;
We look to our sides to our brothers in pain;
We march to our graves, naught to replace us;
We are the arbiters of our own design.
Believing the world would not forsake us -
Deceiving ourselves, we won't awake to see
We are alone in our graves, nothing awaits us;
We are the harbingers of our own demise.

The only thing I regret is believing you when you said there was fucking hope.

If hope is the last to die
Has the end already passed before our eyes?
If hope is the last to die;
You cannot kill what was never alive.

Ascent of Autumn Sydney, Australia

Groovy Melodic Deathcore from Sydney, Australia.

Following a number of lineup changes, the band undertook a shift in direction, incorporating much darker sounds inspired by bands like As Blood Runs Black, Shadow of Intent and Fit for an Autopsy. ... more
