Days End by Obituary Pending
Days End
[Intro – Atmospheric/Heavy Riff]
Fading light, the sky bleeds red
Ashes fall where angels dread
Silent screams beneath the stone
All we built now overthrown
[Verse 1 – Aggressive, mid-tempo]
Shadows crawl across the land
Fingers choke the burning sand
No salvation in the eyes of men
The clock strikes doom, it’s days end
Rivers run with molten grief
Hope is torn, disbelief
Rise no more, the sun descends
The endless night now transcends
[Pre-Chorus – Melodic but heavy]
Whispers call from hollow graves
Souls enslaved by endless waves
Time corrodes the hearts of men
No return, it’s days end
[Chorus – Anthemic, wide vocals]
Days end, the fire consumes
Days end, in shadowed tombs
Shattered skies and broken veins
We fall beneath the silent reign
[Verse 2 – Fast, thrashy]
Iron screams and steel collide
Storms of rage, nowhere to hide
Blood of kings stains the sand
Worlds are lost by human hand
Flesh and bone, they burn and break
Truth decays for power’s sake
Witness chaos, deafened, blind
Crimson tears for humankind
[Bridge – Slow, crushing, doom-style]
Time drags chains across the soul
The bell of fate tolls its toll
Ash to ash and dust to dust
All we love reduced to rust
Eyes of fire, hearts of stone
We reap the seeds that we have sown
No mercy waits beyond the bend
Eternal night, it is days end
[Breakdown – Groove-heavy, chugging riffs]
Hear the cries, the final bell
Cast into the pit of hell
Grind your teeth, embrace despair
Nothing left, no hope, no prayer
[Solo – Melodic yet fierce]
[Final Chorus – Epic, layered vocals]
Days end, the fire consumes
Days end, in shadowed tombs
Shattered skies and broken veins
We fall beneath the silent reign
Days end, all light decays
Days end, lost in the haze
Ashes whisper in the wind
No tomorrow, days end
[Outro – Slow, haunting fade]
The last breath dies in the night
Stars extinguish, void of light
And in the silence, cold and thin
The world exhales, it is days end
