[Intro]

[Verse 1]
Born a child of the night and that stain taints forever
Black of heart and the dark is the one place you treasure
There is not one legend who has wasted life
Wishing worth beyond the earth is absurd in the never

[Pre-Chorus]
(Death won't die)
Death won't die

[Chorus]
So close to heaven and so damn far from God
Lost to the shadows, just ashes in the dust

[Verse 2]
He will creep as you sleep take your dreams and debase them
Traumatised, your demise is his prize when awakened
There is not one legend who'd not realised
The deceased find no peace in the place where he takes them

[Pre-Chorus]
(Death won't die)

[Chorus]
So close to heaven and so damn far from God
Lost to the shadows, just ashes in the dust
So close to heaven and so damn far from God
Lost to the shadows, just ashes in the dust
[Bridge]
The wind's an omen
One soul is stolen
The wind's an omen
One soul is gone

[Chorus]
So close to heaven and so damn far from God
Lost to the shadows, just ashes in the dust
So close to heaven and so damn far from God
Lost to the shadows, just ashes in the dust

[Outro]
Dragging down is effortless
Lifting up takes love
Dragging down is effortless
Welcome to the dust
