The culture of oblivion

[70bpm , C Minor] [Verse 1] In the halls of faded glory, where the whispers of the past, Speak of empires turned to stories, none were made to last. We walk the path of ancients, blind to the signs they cast, The demons wear new faces, but the shadows they hold fast. [Pre-Chorus] Can you hear the silent warnings, in the winds that mournfully blow? The echoes of our forebears, who reaped the seeds they sow. [Chorus] In the culture of oblivion, we dance on history's grave, The same old evil lingers, in the new world that we crave. The demons may change their visage, but their essence stays the same, And we, the blind procession, march to the beat of shame. [bass solo, melodic] [Verse 2] We build our towers higher, reaching for the sky, Ignoring ancient fires, that never truly die. The lore of old forgotten, in the race to claim the throne, And in our haste, we've begotten, the seeds of ruin we've sown. [lead guitar solo, melodic] [Pre-Chorus] Listen to the tales of time, that whisper through the stone, The legacy we leave behind, is not for us alone. [Pre-Chorus] Listen to the tales of time, that whisper through the stone, The legacy we leave behind, is not for us alone. [Chorus] In the culture of oblivion, we dance on history's grave, The same old evil lingers, in the new world that we crave. The demons may change their visage, but their essence stays the same, And we, the blind procession, march to the beat of shame. [short guitar solo] [Bridge] Oh, the specters of the past, they watch with sorrowed eyes, As we forge our chains at last, beneath the guise of lies. [Outro] Will we heed the call of wisdom, or let the past repeat? In the culture of oblivion, do we admit defeat? The tale is ours to write, in the annals of mankind, Will we step into the light, or be forever blind? [END] defeat? The tale is ours to write, in the annals of mankind, Will we step into the light, or be forever blind? [guitar solo fade to end] [guitar solo fade to end] [void] [end]
