Fevered thoughts like rusty razors graze my flesh

Reality grips like hooks inside me causing labored breath

My throat a desert clouds of dust as I exhale

Vocal chords now bleeding spew the chorus of my despair

Kingdom gone

We are alone

Ruination

With burning eyes I view my world in infrared

Fires inspire the hold of demons who put them there

My fingers burn at the touch of your tortured skin

I scream as my lifeblood boils deep within

Kingdom gone

I am alone

Ruination

A withered spirit the toils of time has ripped to shreds

The tears that fall scorch the dead ground in crimson red

With my last breath I curse the coming of dawn

Unfiltered rays of light burn the ground I stand upon

Kingdom gone

There is no one

Ruination
