Lyrics

[Verse 1]
These are the ashes of time
No phoenix in sight
No train of thought to catch
At the empty station, relic of the past
Insipid, worthless, vacuous, monotonous
[Verse 2]
A map of pitilessness
Guiding into heartlessness
No inner compass to orient
No beginning without an end
Black hole life? Oblivion?
I must leave behind
[Chorus]
No home for me
Here in this darkened wasteland time
So monochrome
No home for me
When all I see is black and white
Moving forward means leaving behind
[Verse 3]
This map of pitilessness
A route into deadheartedness
Ruins
They capture splinters of my past, my shattered days
A lifetime made of debris, ember and of dust
I tramp, I stray, I roam
[Chorus]
No home for me
Here in this darkened wasteland time
So monochrome
No home for me
When all I see is black and white
Moving forward means leaving behind
[Bridge]
Shadows starving
Lurking for new lights to kill
[Verse 4]
No way to navigate through this dreariness
No ray to illuminate a path towards the end
No past to realize, all covered in ashes
Leave behind the only chance to move on from here
[Bridge]
Leave behind
Change of mind
Leave behind
Change of mind
[Chorus]
No home for me
Here in this darkened wasteland time
So monochrome
No home for me
When all I see is black and white
Moving forward means leaving behind
