---

Chasing meaning in a world so cold,

Feeding hope to fools

While the truth unfolds,

Buried beneath the ruins.

Progress cuts like a rusted blade,

Hope decays beneath my feet.

The future's fading, overthrown,

Surrounded by the unknown.

On the brink where silence screams,

Edges blur, the skies grow dim,

Here I stand

At the edge, on my feet

Pushing forward with no sense of relief

Through the ashes

At the edge of defeat

Chasing hope that's closing in, to oblivion

Like a broken anchor, sinking slow,

Bound to the weight of sorrow,

In the depths unknown.

Hope dissolves in shadows rising, dragging all I've known below

Drowning in the silent thunder,

Where darkness grows.

Falling fast through cracks unseen,

Lost inside a shattered dream.

Here I stand

At the edge, on my feet

Pushing forward with no sense of relief

Through the ashes

At the edge of defeat

Chasing hope that's closing in, to oblivion

Here I stand

At the edge, on my feet

Pushing forward with no sense of relief

Through the ashes

At the edge of defeat

Chasing hope that never was

In the end,

We will face no regret

No gods to curse,

No faith to prove.
