Awakened Relics

Metal beasts they left behind Now serve the ones that refuse to die [Pre-Chorus] Gears grind, a symphony of toil As they unearth the spoils Voices like ghosts echo, beg for reprieve In the dance of the scavengers, nothing is free Through the waste, they carve their fate When will cease this hunt? My soul cries out to glimpse At the ruins we reclaim in dark Scrounge for treasure Twisted remnants of our days to come Sifting ashes of the old world's demise Sirens wail as we pry open the sky [Chorus] Iron hearts beat under neon rains Scavengers rise, in the aftermath we stake our claim Silhouettes 'gainst a radioactive moon They crave the relics of a world entombed In shadows deep, where the fallout creeps Visions of the past whisper in heaps [Pre-Chorus] Electric thrum, the rhythm of the lost As they embrace the chaos at any cost Clawing through the debris, a spark ignites In the echoes of the apocalypse, they find their rights Scars of steel, the city's skin Paved with stories of the broken [Pre-Chorus] Synths wail, the dirge of forgotten time While they scour for survival, for the sublime Circuits pulse, to the beat of the forsaken As the relics they desire become awakened
