Ash Is Falling Rain

Blackened skies surround me
When I cut my veins
Everytime it is the same
Ash is falling rain
But why?!

Floating down to the earth
Burnt human remains
Choking all who inhale
This ashen falling rain
Wading through the sea of black
The mothers hunt their young
As starving beasts, a carnal curse
Apocalyptic dwellers, thin and gray

A fertile seed in the darkness
Peering out through the open membrane

All is lost, it's raining death from the poisoned clouds
Breathe it in, feel it burn your lungs
As you choke up blood, it starts to drain from your ears and eyes
In time this will come
Feel it well, staring down at all the rest
In agony, all but me
Sunken eyes, still and blank in the darkness
It's all the same in my dreams

With blazing eyes I crawl out from the womb
With two clenched fists full of her guts
I start to breathe, I inhale everything
A hint of death blankets the air
But why?!

Wet with blood, it's clotting up at the moment
I've seen the eyes of the dead
I have traveled back from the brink of forever
I am alone in this world
Now I know, now I know what I must do
I will go deeper still
I will journey back to the sea of the ashes
And see what will become
